SGH consulted on the design and construction of the facade and roofing, systems, focusing on airtightness, thermal performance, water resistance, durability, and constructability. Highlights of our work include:
- Reviewing enclosure-related drawings and specifications for alignment with performance goals, such as thermal continuity, moisture management, and energy efficiency
- Consulting on the design and a field-built mockup of the facade systems, including curtain walls, storefronts, and opaque wall assemblies
- Helping develop details to integrate materials and systems, such as transitions between windows, curtain walls, and opaque wall elements
- Developing isometric details for complex conditions, including the drift joint at the storefront head
- Providing construction phase services, including reviewing contractor submittals; performing site visits to observe curtain wall, facade, and PVC roofing installation; providing support to plan and witness performance testing to ensure compliance with project requirements; and helping the project team address field conditions
