About this detail

A manual roller shade system is side-mounted to the aluminum curtain wall head framing section at a finished ceiling height of 12'-0" AFF. The shade mechanism is housed within a pocket measuring 3 1/8 inches wide by 3 7/8 inches deep per the manufacturer's specification. A painted gypsum board ceiling bulkhead framed with metal studs forms the interior edge of the pocket, finished with corner bead, tape, mud, and paint to match the ceiling. Structural steel plates provide support connections at the curtain wall header. The shade fabric drops vertically in the closed position behind the glazing line.
