About this detail

This clerestory head detail shows the intersection of an EFCO window frame with structural steel and hollow structural section beams above. A wood header is anchored via welded threaded studs with countersunk hot-dip galvanized fasteners, supporting a roller shade fascia and guide assembly adjacent to a Tectum ceiling. Sealant, backer rods, and shims provide the weather seal at the window head alongside a metal soffit panel and vent. Cold-formed steel metal stud framing with one-half-inch sheathing and continuous vapor retarders complete the envelope transition.
