Day 22 – Thursday April 24th

  • Deadlines

    • 4/29: Pre-Final Pinup for both rainscreen and glazing systems
      • Sheets must be posted to Miro before class starts to receive feedback. This is the last chance before the graded pin-up presentations!
      • No Revit work will be done in class, this will be a review of sheets with markups on Miro.
    • Final Pinups:
      • 5/1: Glazing
      • 5/6: Rainscreen
  • Refer to Previous Posts from Day 19 and Day 20 for Diagrams from Class Discussions. Additional Note discussed in class:

  •  

    • Glazing: Captured (Horizontal) vs Structural Silicone (verticals)
    • SSG Curtain Wall System
  • Deliverables

  •  

    • 3D Diagrams (as necessary to explain your system)
      • Exploded axons
      • Installation sequence
    • 2D Details (each detail must have annotations & dimensions, do not rely solely on your Revit modeling. Critically think about the assembly of your system but referring to your manufacturer’s details)
      • Recommended 3″ = 1′-0″ scale, Min 1-1/2″ = 1-0″ scale.
      • Each detail should show the various system components. 
        • Rainscreen
          • Studs
          • Sheathing
          • Air & Vapor Barrier (AVB)
