Last week work continued with the interior partition framing and most of the first floor was framed. Work also began on the exterior metal framing. These are the exterior walls of the building around the perimeter that keep the weather out.

The Construction Documents require that all ductwork be sealed while under construction.
This prevents dust and construction particulates from contaminating the ductwork.

Special types of slotted attachment anchors are required at the top of the metal framed walls.
Interior walls need to accommodate up to 1-1/2" of movement and the exterior walls need to accommodate up to 1". |
