About this detail

This plan detail shows the jamb transition between a mechanical louver and a metal panel wall system labeled MP1 over wall type WA8. The metal panel subframing receives a continuous two-and-a-half by one-and-three-quarter by one-eighth-inch aluminum angle on clips, sealed to the louver with sealant at fastener penetrations using wet-set screws. A foil-faced self-adhering membrane and weather-resistant barrier wrap the wall construction adjacent to the louver frame. Mineral wool thermal blocking with a sheet metal cover fills the interior transition space. Sealant and backer rod provide the exterior weather seal at the louver frame interface, supplemented by duct connections, blank-off panels, and insect screens per the louver manufacturer.
