Window Details in Solid Masonry/ Veneer Construction (Continued)
Window Assembly Review • Finished window assembly depends on: • architectural design of structure • region of country/climate • material of structure • type of window • Must be familiar with • installation sequence • proper weatherproofing
Window Types - Materials • Same as in wood construction • wood • steel • aluminum • vinyl/wood covered with vinyl (wood clad) • combination
Window Types - Styles in Masonry Construction • Same as in Wood Construction • casement • horizontal sliding • double-hung • awning • louver/jalousie • fixed sash • combination types • bay, bow, box
Combination Units • max light • large viewing area • good ventilation • very common today • 2 casement with center picture window
Detailing Windows in Masonry Construction • Limited flexibility with masonry construction • stay with standard sizes designed for block • Window action is not important • Weatherproofing & installation are important • Brick and Brick Veneer masonry have some flexible • can adjust for different masonry openings
Pictorial - Window in Masonry Construction • Horizontal sliding window - wood frame attached to concrete block
Masonry Construction Window Details • Metal drip at sill • Caulking used to seal head and jamb
Steel Casement in Masonry Construction • Pre-cast concrete sill with drip slot on underneath side • Sash block (see page 105 of text) used for head and jamb • Window fin fits into the slot of the sash block and grout fixes the window in place
Brick Window Exterior • Head and sill materials can be different than jamb material
Brick Construction - Window Elevation and Nomenclature • Coordinate elevation drawing with drawing notations for each detail
Brick Construction - Head Detailof wood casement • Notation 21 • Notice steel angles supporting the brick • Caulking used to weather seal installation • Space and drywall to finish interior
Brick Construction - Jamb Detailof wood casement window • Notation 22 • Caulking use to seal installation • Metal ground at exposed edge of drywall
Brick Construction - Sill Detail • Notation 23 • Notice handle to open and close casement window • Brick sill is sloped to divert water away from window • Again, caulking and metal trim use to seal and finish installation
Vertical Mullion Detail • Notation 24 • Two casement windows side-by-side, joint covered with trim to finish installation
Head Detail (masonry) • Note use of caulking and wood trim • Wood sliding window
Sill Detail (masonry) • Note use of grout and caulking • Wood sliding window
Brick Veneer Construction Details • Notice sloped brick sill • Notice brick shown in section and elevation • Notice inside finish moldings • Brick at head detail supported by angle
Extra Credit Assignment • Elevate and detail each window type for the Hotel project on Sheet A-8. The End.
