1. A structurally glazed curtain wall system comprising: a first insulated glazing unit comprising a fire rated glazing unit spaced apart and coupled to a glass unit;a first pressure plate including a plurality of extending members, the first pressure plate configured to be coupled to a building structure and positionable between an outer face of the fire rated glazing unit and an inner face of the glass unit;a second insulated glazing unit and a second pressure plate coupling the second insulated glazing unit to the building structure, the second pressure plate including a plurality of extending members; anda plurality of retaining members configured to secure the first and second pressure plates to the building structure;wherein the extending members of the first and second pressure plates have openings for receiving the retaining members, and the first and second pressure plates are at least partially interleaved such that the extending members vertically overlap one another. 2. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of threaded stand-off spacers the threaded stand-off spacers being positioned between the extending members of the first and second pressure plates and the building structure and configured to receive at least one of the retaining members to couple the first and second pressure plates to the building structure. 3. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 1, wherein the fire rated glazing unit and glass unit of the first insulated glazing unit are coupled together by at least one spacer, and a first face of the spacer is adhered to an outside surface of the fire rated glazing unit and a second face of the spacer is adhered to an inside surface of the glass unit. 4. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 1, wherein the building structure comprises at least one steel mullion and the first and second glazing units are coupled to the steel mullion by the extending members of the first and second pressure plates. 5. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of glazing gaskets positioned between the first and second pressure plates and the outside surfaces of the fire rated glazing of the first and second insulated glazing units. 6. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 5, further comprising a silicone weather seal positioned between the first insulated glazing unit and the second insulated glazing unit. 7. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 1, wherein the insulated glazing unit meets fire barrier and thermal transfer limitations of ASTM E119-10a for a period duration of at least 45 minutes. 8. A method of constructing a structurally glazed curtain wall, the method comprising: providing first and second insulated glazing units comprising respective first and second fire rated glazing units coupled to respective first and second glass units, the first and second fire rated glazing units being coupled to the respective first and second glass units with a plurality of spacers;positioning a first pressure plate at least partially between the first fire rated glazing unit and the first glass unit, the first pressure plate comprising extending members;positioning a second pressure plate at least partially between the second fire rated glazing unit and the second glass unit, the second pressure plate comprising extending members;aligning the first and second insulated glazing units such that the first and second pressure plates are at least partially interleaved and the respective extending members of the first and second pressure plates vertically overlap one another; andcoupling the first and second insulated glazing units to a building structure by securing a plurality of retaining members to the first and second pressure plates and the building structure,wherein the first and second pressure plates secure the first and second insulated glazing units to the building structure by applying a pressure against an outer face of the respective first and second fire rated glazing units. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the coupling of the first and second insulated glazing units to the building structure comprises securing fasteners through the extending members of the first and second pressure plates and into threaded stand-off spacers positioned between the building structure and the first and second pressure plates. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the first and second pressure plates comprise a plurality of rotatable retaining members and the coupling of the first and second insulated glazing units to the building structure comprises: positioning the plurality of rotatable retaining members into slots provided adjacent the outer face of the first and second fire rated glazing units; andsecuring the rotatable retaining members to the building structure. 11. The method of claim 8, further comprising securing a weather seal between the first and second insulated glazing units. 12. A structurally glazed curtain wall system, comprising: a first insulated glazing unit comprising a fire rated glazing unit spaced apart and coupled to a glass unit;a first pressure plate configured to be coupled to a building structure and positionable between an outer face of the fire rated glazing unit and an inner face of the glass unit;a plurality of retaining members configured to secure the first pressure plate to the building structure;a plurality of stand-off spacer members, each threaded stand-off spacer being positioned between the first pressure plate and configured to receive at least one of the retaining members to couple the first pressure plate to the building structure;at least one rigid spacer member positioned adjacent the outer face of the fire rated glazing unit, the at least one rigid spacer member including two spaced-apart extending portions defining a slot. 13. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 12, wherein the first pressure plate comprises a rotatable retainer plate that is sized to fit within the slot to secure the fire rated glazing unit to the building structure. 14. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 13, further comprising a plurality of rotatable retainer plates and a plurality of rigid spacer members defining a plurality of slots, each rotatable retainer plate comprising a toggle retainer that is sized to be received within one of the plurality of slots. 15. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 12, wherein the fire rated glazing unit and the glass unit are coupled together by the at least one rigid spacer member, and a first face of the rigid spacer member is adhered to an outside surface of the fire rated glazing unit and a second face of the rigid spacer member is adhered to an inside surface of the glass unit. 16. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 12, further comprising a second insulated glazing unit and a second pressure plate coupling the second insulated glazing unit to the building structure. 17. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 16, wherein the building structure comprises at least one steel mullion and the first and second glazing units are coupled to the steel mullion by the first and second pressure plates. 18. The structurally glazed curtain wall system of claim 16, further comprising a silicone weather seal positioned between the first insulated glazing unit and the second insulated glazing unit, the silicone weather seal being supported by a backer support.
