About this detail

The head condition of a bay window integrates with an exterior insulated metal panel wall and a living wall support system. A hollow structural section steel beam supports the two-inch insulated metal panel backed by a half-inch vented hat channel, vapor retarder, and wood framing. The storefront assembly features a recessed roller shade pocket with a motorized shade assembly, a recessed light fixture, and three-quarter-inch finish plywood interior lining. The exterior head incorporates a half-inch weathering steel window surround anchored per the manufacturer's requirements over one-and-a-half by one-and-a-quarter-inch welded steel L-angles, wood nailers, shims, and sealant joints with backer rods. A three-sixteenth-inch stainless steel support frame for living wall cables is tied back into the assembly with welded connections and fasteners set in sealant.
