About this detail

This wall section details a parapet assembly featuring a prefinished parapet cap atop a six-inch metal stud top plate, paired with a multi-rail aluminum guardrail consisting of a one-half-inch by four-inch top rail, one-half-inch by two-and-one-half-inch intermediate rails, and one-half-inch by four-inch balusters spaced at five feet on center maximum. The exterior wall construction includes stone and exterior insulation and finish system cladding with a minimum R-7.5 rating, over gypsum sheathing, liquid applied membrane, drainage board, and six-inch metal studs with batt insulation. At the floor level, a sloped concrete topping slab sits over a concrete on metal deck assembly, with a scheduled ceiling below. The lower exterior features metal panels installed over seven-eighths-inch furring strips, transitioning down to a drip edge above a scheduled window.
