Specification450 Series Flushed Glazed

Design

The system shall be 4 ½” x 1 ¾” center line

flush glazing and accommodate glass from

3mm to 10mm thick. The system can be

glazed from interior or exterior and is dry

glaze.

Performance

See Wind load Charts.

Structural performance shall conform to CSA

Standard CAN3-S157 “Strength design in

Aluminum” and a maximum deflection of 1/175

of the span.

Material

Extrusions shall be 6063 alloy and T5 Temper.

Glazing gaskets shall be EPDM elastomeric

extrusions.

Finish

Both anodized and painted finishes are

available. All integral colour anodizing is

Architectural Class II., 0.4 to 0.7 mm coating.

A fluropolymer paint coating conforming to the

requirements of AAMA 603 and AAMA 605

specifications, the toughest coating in the

industry standards.

Testing

All testing shall be on full size frame sections.

Air infiltration shall be tested in accordance

with ASTM-Designation E283-91 or ASHRAE

standards #90-80

Fabrication

Framing should be fabricated from extrusions

of size and shape in accordance with shop

drawings. The framing system shall provide

for flush glazing while maintaining the 1

¾” nominal face dimensions.

The 450 Series has a complete number of

sections including deflection header and

extruded sub sill runner that can satisfy any

design requirements.

Construction

Frames shall have mechanically joined

corners with no exposed screws. All joints

shall be accurately fitted free of burrs and

rough edges. Complete frame assemblies

shall be free of warp. Each type of entrance

framing systems is compatible with all

Standard Aluminum swing doors and sliding

mall fronts.

Installation

Experienced technicians in accordance with

approved shop drawings shall install all

frames. The frames shall be set plumb,

square, and level and in correct alignment and

adjacent construction. All anchoring shall suit

the type of construction of the perimeter work.

Protection and Cleaning

After installation the general contractor should

adequately protect the exposed aluminum and

glass surfaces from damage by other trades.

i.e.(but not restricted to) cement splash and

leach, grinding, polishing compounds, plaster,

paint, lime, acids and other contaminants.
