2. Curtain Wall Assembly — The curtain wall assembly shall incorporate the following construction features:
A. Mullion Anchor Plates — Nom 7 in. wide by 9-1/4 in. long by 5/8 in. thick extruded aluminum plates with a nominal 1-3/4 in. high raised lip
along one end to engage hooked ends of mullion mounting clips (Item 2B). Plates anchored to top surface of floor at each mullion location
with steel wedge anchor bolts in conjunction with extruded aluminum washers.
B. Mullion Mounting Clips — Nominal 3 in. wide by 7 in. high extruded aluminum anchor slides with tapped holes and with separate extruded
aluminum hooks designed to engage the raised lip of the anchor plate (Item 2A). Anchor slides bolted to each side of mullion at each floor with
1/2 in. diam stainless steel screws with locking washers. Anchor hooks secured to anchor slides with steel jacking screws and secured to
raised lip of anchor plate with steel set screw.
C. Framing — The one-piece or split rectangular tubing mullions (vertical members) and transoms (horizontal members) shall be min 2-1/2 in.
wide by 6 in. deep and shall be formed from min 0.125 in. thick aluminum. Mullions spaced max 60 in. OC and secured to mullion anchor
plates (Item 2A) with mounting clips (Item 2B) at each floor level. Interior face of mullions to be max 4 in. from edge of floor assembly.
Transoms to be spaced min 69 in. OC. The minimum height from the top of the floor to the bottom of the vision panel sill is 33 in.
D. Spandrel Panels — The spandrel panels shall consist of one of the following types:
a. Glass Panels — Nom 1/4 in. (6 mm) thick opaque heat-strengthened glass. Each panel secured in position with aluminum pressure plates
in conjunction with glazing gaskets and steel screws.
b. Aluminum Panels — Nom 1/8 in. (3 mm) thick aluminum panels with 1/4 in. (6 mm) thick edges. Each panel secured in position with
aluminum pressure plates in conjunction with gaskets and steel screws.
c. Stone Panels — Nom 1-3/16 in. (46 mm) thick polished granite spandrel panels with 1 in. (25 mm) thick gauged edges. Each panel
secured in position with aluminum pressure plates in conjunction with gaskets and steel screws.
