21. Detailing Windows in Wood Construction u Usually purchased as a unit/assembly u Custom sizes/combinations easily available u Align details with each other: head, jamb, & sill u Details similar to door –window action is not important in detail, but may effect the detail –weatherproofing & installation are important –detail from window frame outward

22. Head Detail (wood) with Pictorial

23. Jamb Detail (wood) u Note that details call out weatherproofing (caulking) & show trim size callouts

24. Sill Detail (wood) with Pictorial THE END !!!

25. Drawing Exercise Wood Window Detail u Draft the elevation of a 5040 (W x H) window, 1/2” = 1’-0” at the top of the sheet, details will be added to bottom u Extend the sill so more of the wall is shown below the window sill u Give notations to coordinate sections with detail u Draft the brick to proper size showing the 3/8” joints u Bricks at window sill are turned on edge and sloped (5 degrees), overhang is 1 1/2” on the underneath side
