Observations
• On Part A, west, south and east elevations rising walls, Grid Lines A1 - B13, K-W, GCP Perm-A-
Barrier Aluminum AVB was installed by Beacon prior to RJK observations. Primer/adhesive was
applied to the DensGlass Sheathing. The membrane was installed in a water shedding fashion, with a
minimum 2 inch side lap and 10 inch lap around outside corners, as required. (Figure 1)

water shedding fashion between strips at the head, jambs, and sill. Dow Sil 795 Sealant was applied to
the edges of the membrane at the wall and glazing pocket. (Figure 4)
• On Part B, east elevation rising walls, Grid Lines B25 - B33, Hohmann & Bernard Thermal 2-Seal Wing
Nut Anchors are installed through 6-inch John Mansville MinWool-1200. (Figure 5)
• On Part B, south elevation base detail, Grid Lines A17-A30, solid grout fill was installed between
precast concrete bases and extruded polystyrene insulation. (Figure 6)
• On Part B, south elevation base detail, Grid Lines A17 - B33, metal through-wall flashing is installed
over the precast concrete base, fastened utilizing termination bar and screws at 16 inches on-center.
(Figure 7)
• On Part B, south elevation rising walls, Grid Lines B25 - B33, Knight MFI ThermaBracket S-Series
wall ties were installed, fastened utilizing screws, and wet set in GCP Perm-A-Barrier S100 Sealant.
(Figure 8)
• On Part D, north elevation rising wall, Grid Lines D6 - D21, LYMO 2000 ACM panels were installed,
fastened utilizing panel clips to horizontal GreenGirt. (Figure 9)
Window Testing
• On the Part D, north elevation, Grid Lines D3, G1A and G2A windows, testing was conducted by FET
to check for air and water leakage. The water penetration resistance testing was performed in
accordance with ASTM E 1105: “Test Method for Field Determination of Water Penetrations of
Installed Exterior Windows, Skylights, Doors, and Curtain Walls, By Uniform or Cyclical Static Air
Pressure Difference”. Each window was first tested for air leakage and then water leakage. A total of
four tests were conducted on two window units. Air testing was conducted at 3 psf and water testing
was conducted at 6 psf. Both window units pass air and water testing. (Figures 10 - 14)
