SGH consulted on the facade, including custom, unitized aluminum-framed fenestration, metal panels, and terra cotta rainscreen panels. We worked closely with the design team and helped them with the following:

• Selecting wall systems and materials
• Developing details for the wall systems and transitions to adjacent enclosure systems
• Preparing project specifications related to the facade work
• Collaborating with a design-assist contractor to further refine the design
• Evaluating the energy performance of the facade
• Visiting the unitized curtain wall panels manufacturing plant to observe their fabrication and QA/QC processes
• Consulting on a performance mockup of the exterior wall assemblies and witnessing air/water infiltration testing
• Providing construction phase services, including reviewing submittals, visiting the site to observe ongoing construction, witnessing performance testing of the installed facade, and helping the project team address field conditions
