center with 4" long GP-113 exterior wedge gaskets. Locate at the corners for proper sealing of the
gasket joint. Glazing retainers are also required at each end of the horizontals and at the center of
each horizontal if the D.L.O. is greater than 4' in length. Use WW-333-01 temporary glazing retainers
fastened with (1) FS-325 screw. Torque fasteners to 60 in-lbs.Temporary retainers are intended for
short-term use only. Additional retainers may be required to withstand full design wind load
pressures. If severe weather or high wind loads are anticipated, full length pressure plates must be
installed. SEE FIGURE 20, below & FIGURE 21, page 25.
3.5 Set glass in opening from the exterior. When using Type I vertical mullions, place one edge of the
glass into the deep pocket of the vertical. Swing the glass into the adjacent vertical pocket,
ensuring that the glass bite is equal on all sides. See FIGURE 19
CAUTION: Be certain that glass is placed firmly against interior gasket to ensure a proper
seal and to avoid binding of the glass on the setting block
