SHOP DRAWINGS
The most critical step of any project and the fundamental key for success.
Our in house team will work on the shop drawings of you project to deliver final documents with all details for related trades to achieve quality installation and smooth production.
Shop drawings process
The proper shop drawings include multi stage process. Everything start with architectural drawings for new construction or remodeling. If basic replacement the initial process is the design.
Architectural drawings the most circulating version is pdf file. Our draftsman will ask for the cad file so we can save the time and unnecessary additional expenses.
Strongly suggested to create separate file for each system that will be used in the project. The storefront system is single file. The new windows installation or window replacement is additional file. Curtain wall or facade is another file. Railing is separate file only if no coordination with windows or curtain wall or any other facade elements as Aluminum panels, fences for the public areas and private balconies and terraces.
Storefront systems can be made from different materials and need complete coordination with other possible structural set up or elements like canopies. Aluminum Storefront is the most common system. However it can be coordinated with steel structure, automatic doors, be part of the curtain wall. All those details will be coordinated during the shop drawings process.
Automatic storefront system required additional coordination with electrician and other trades. For floor elements as Rixon door closer that installed below the floor surface . It is critical to coordinate with masonry or concrete trade.
Steel storefront very rare been used but any steel structure need to make sure protected and review for elements contact to avoid rusting of the material.
Another very popular option is glass store front system. Glass store front is complicated shop drawings as they include a lot of calculations. Those shop drawings will be provided by the glass supplier under our coordination. The most popular in this category is Oldcastle. As distributors of the Oldcastle product we will get the shop drawings and all needed information from Oldcastle supplier.
Windows shop drawings involve a lot of coordination with window factory to make sure we have the best possible product for your project. Custom Aluminum windows can have many incorporated elements that help you to complete the project without any delays and implement the needed details as trim around the window or proper groove for the flashing placement at the sill.
New construction is very different process from the replacement of the windows. Critical steps are the design of the windows, anchoring elements, interior finish. Interior elements can be finished differently to accommodate the interior design . We can supply the clips system to accommodate different placement of anchoring. The goal to predict every field elements and avoid future delays without compromise the quality of the product and installation.
Facade and railing elements are very critical for the structural elements and will need coordinated with filed conditions while windows mostly coordinated with frame build.
Our goal not only create the drawings that will meet the architect requirements but also coordinate proper components such are silicone, anchor, waterproofing.
