Installation Best Practices
This course provides information about window installation from the perspective of the architect and design professional. Rather than a “how-to” installation training course, information is presented in a format that begins with specifications and detail drawings and ends with job site observation. The slides follow through the stages in the order that a typical project would progress; highlighting key areas where the architect and design professional can take more of a lead role in the successful design and installation of this critical element in the building envelope.
- Design details that will allow the installed windows to perform as intended and as required for the project
- Identify job site best practices that will minimize impact on schedule, budget, and product performance
- Specify window installation methods and materials that are best suited for each project’s exterior wall design
- Lead the project team through the installation process, providing guidance and solutions related to window issues
