The same action is required for outside glazed and
structural glazed mullions also. Make sure that the
face covers are installed prior to the perimeter seal
for these members. This step will be completed
after glass installation.
When the unit is installed and anchored, begin placing caulk rope into the gap
between the perimeter and the frame. Then apply a generous amount of silicone
type sealant to the gap between the frame and rough opening. Tool off all excess
sealant to ensure a good seal and to achieve an appropriate appearance. See
Figure 43.
