What Information and Materials are Required to Create Shop Drawings?

There are several pieces of information and materials that are typically required to create glass and glazing shop drawings, including:

    1. Design drawings: The design drawings for the building, such as architectural plans and elevations, provide the context for the glass and glazing components and show the size, shape, and location of the glazing.
    2. Glass and glazing specifications: The specifications for the glass and glazing components provide information about the type and thickness of the glass, the size and shape of the frame and seals, and any performance requirements or limitations.
    3. Installation details: Information about the method of attachment, clearance requirements, and any special considerations, such as structural support or weatherproofing, is needed to create the installation details for the shop drawings.
    4. Materials lists: A list of the sizes, quantities, and materials for each component is needed to create the schedules for the shop drawings.

Overall, these pieces of information and materials are necessary to create accurate and comprehensive glass and glazing shop drawings that provide detailed instructions for the manufacture and installation of the glazing components in a building.
