GENERAL DESCRIPTIONWork Included: Furnish all necessarymaterials, labor, and equipment for the complete installation of aluminumframing as shown on the drawings and specified herein. Work Not Included: Structural supportof the framing system, interior closures,and trim. (Specifier list otherexclusions).Related Work Specified Elsewhere:(Specifier list).QUALITY ASSURANCED rawings and specifications are basedon the Series 3250 CURTAIN Wall Systemas manufactured by substitute products are to be considered, supporting technicalliterature, samples, drawings, andperformance data must be submitted 10 days prior to bid in order to make a valid comparison of the productsinvolved.

3 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTSAir Infiltration:shall be tested inaccordance with ASTM E shall not exceed .06 CFM per square foot (.0003m3/sm2) fixed area when tested at psf (300 Pa).Water Infiltration:shall be tested inaccordance with ASTM E 331. No water penetration at test pressure of 15 psf (718 Pa). Structural Performance:shall betested in accordance with ASTM E 330and based on: Maximum deflection of L/175 of thespan Allowable stress with a safety factorof system shall perform to this criteriaunder a windload of (Specify) psfSystem shall exceed maximum seismiclateral displacement requirementsspecified in section of theUniform building Code, 1994 successful completion of thePhase I seismic testing, the CURTAIN wallshall once again be subjected to, andmust successfully pass the air andwater infiltration tests specified abovebefore proceeding to Phase II Performance:Series 3250 CURTAIN Wall shall be tested inaccordance with AAMA 1503, Procedures:ASTM 283, E 331,and E 330 - Laboratory performancetesting.

Glazinggaskets shall be exposed framing surfaces shall befree of scratches and other seriousblemishes. ALUMINUM extrusions shallbe given a caustic etch followed by ananodic oxide treatment to (Specify one of the following):_____#11 Clear anodic coating_____#22 Dark Bronze anodic coating_____#33 Black anodic coatingA Fluoropolymer paint coatingconforming with the requirements ofAAMA 2605.

5 Color shall be (Specify a ALUMINUM standard color).FABRICATIONAll mullions and horizontals shall haveflexible (PVC) thermal break materiallocated on exterior side of glass glazing seal gasket shall besecured by extruded aluminumpressure plates fastened to main gridmembers. Provisions shall be made atall sealed horizontals to weep moistureaccumulation to the exterior. A covershall be snapped over pressure plate to show only a sharp, uninterruptedexterior profile. Framing members shallprovide for straight-in glazing on allsides, with through sight lines and noprojecting stops or face joints. Verticaland horizontal framing members shall have a nominal width of 2-1/2" ( ).Overall depth of system shall be(Specify). System shall provide for twopiece horizontal framing so that allfasteners at intersection of horizontaland vertical members will be concealed.

6 III. EXECUTION INSTALLATIONAll glass framing shall be set in correctlocations as shown in the details andshall be level, square, plumb, and inalignment with other work inaccordance with the manufacturer sinstallation instructions and approvedshop drawings. All joints betweenframing and the building structure shall be sealed in order to secure awatertight AND CLEANINGA fter installation the General Contractorshall adequately protect exposedportions of ALUMINUM surfaces fromdamage by grinding and polishingcompounds, plaster, lime, acid, cementor other contaminants. The GeneralContractor shall be responsible for Improved Series 3250JJ303-J3 CURTAIN WALLST echnical By Phone(800) 262-5151 Ext.

7 Complementing the efficiency of insulated glass , Series 3250 is Thermally Improved by a continuous thermal spacer interlocked with the horizontal and vertical pressure plates. Dual colors can be achieved byspecifying different finishes for the exterior face covers and interior mullions. Two piece horizontals and die cast shear blocksallow for a concealed horizontal to vertical joinery without exposed screws. These joint intersections also have ConcealedInjection Molded End Dams for controlling any infiltrated water.
