About this detail

A curtain wall head condition meets a floor structure alongside structural silicone glazed horizontal members at upper-level stair landings and handrails. The assembly features a continuous aluminum closure strip, a metal panel assembly with a thermal separator, a flat-capped horizontal sill, and a stool extension trim. Shims and continuous backer rods with sealant are used at joints, while clipped connections by the contractor secure the framing. Interior finishes include a gypsum board ceiling with edge trim, acoustic ceiling tile schedules, and gypsum board over metal studs. Structural elements incorporate a minimum one-inch steel plate at the edge of the floor structure and internally reinforced handrail connections.
