Apply Aluminum to marked elevations, opening schedules, details and specifications rather than a nominal window size. Collect field dimensions, photographs, wall sections, glass and finish requirements, performance criteria, bid dates, delivery constraints and installation responsibility.
Keep System Decisions Connected
Frame depth, module, mullion spacing, glass size and weight, operable vents, hardware, anchors, drainage, thermal breaks, finish and perimeter conditions affect one another. Keep the selected approach in one project record so a late change does not invalidate an earlier calculation or detail.
Coordinate the Building Enclosure
Review how the window or facade connects to structure, sheathing, air barrier, water-resistive barrier, flashing, insulation, vapor control, cladding, interior finishes and perimeter fire containment. Mark continuity at heads, sills, jambs, intermediate anchors and transitions between systems.
Confirm the Final Scope
Before release, verify opening marks, quantities, dimensions, system, glass, finish, hardware, screens, panels, anchors, perimeter materials, testing, engineering, submittals, crates, freight, unloading and installation responsibility. Record alternates and exclusions in language the project team can price and administer.
