About this detail

This window head detail features an exterior 1/2-inch Alumaboard metal panel with a wood texture look mounted over continuous rigid insulation, a vapor barrier, and 5/8-inch plywood sheathing. A light gauge metal box header supports the assembly above a one-inch double glazing system, separated by a 1/4-inch shim and continuous sealant. The interior framing consists of six-inch metal studs with batt insulation and a 5/8-inch gypsum board finish. A metal drip flashing is installed at the exterior transition, and a shim space sits adjacent to the tilt-up concrete wall.
