A parapet and gutter corner assembly features a hollow structural section 8x6x5/8 main post hidden below and a hollow structural section 4x4x1/4 parapet post located at grid line typical. The parapet wall is framed with 8-inch light gauge steel studs at 24 inches on center, clad with treated 3/4-inch sheathing and 1/2-inch plywood. Exterior finishes include vertical wood siding over 1/2-inch hat channel spacers and Kingspan metal roofing panels with manufacturer-specified flashing and waterproofing. An angled drain gutter incorporates a 6-inch main drainage pipe and a 6-inch overflow drainage pipe with flashing and sealant, protected by a continuous screened leaf catcher over the trough. A roof access ladder and safety cage are anchored to the horizontal hollow structural section steel structure with reinforced blocking secured to the wall studs.
