6.5 SSG Bridge Installation: An aluminum bridge must be installed at each horizontal to vertical connection
when using a SSG mullion. The bridge will be attached to the horizontals using (2) FS-202 #8 x ½” Pan
Head screws. Sealant will be applied to the horizontal member and to the mating surface of the bridge.
Set bridge in place and attach. Tool sealant around the perimeter of the bridge and along the face of the
mullion. Cap seal fasteners. The joint at the face of the bridge to the horizontal must also be sealed. SEE
FIGURE 25,.
Seal perimeter of frame. Care must be taken to marry seals at the corners of the frame. Interior seals
are not required for system performance, but may be necessary for cosmetic purposes. When installing
exterior seal it is recommended that the seal be applied prior to installing face caps. Keep weep holes at
sill clear of sealant. Never apply perimeter seal along outer edge of face cap.
