Drawing check
1CG review of the 9 October 2026 set · everything coordinates
Checked against the drawings
- Width
Rough opening 6′-0″ less frame 5′-11¼″ leaves ¾″: 3/8″ at each jamb.
- Height
Rough opening 7′-1″ less frame 6′-11 13/16″ leaves 1 3/16″: the 3/8″ head shim (SD-001) plus the 13/16″ sill (SD-002).
- Module
Plan 3′-0″ + 3′-0″ = 6′-0″ and section 2′-11″ + 4′-2″ = 7′-1″, both equal to the rough opening.
- Unit size
Each unit is about 35⅝″ × 83 13/16″ (half the frame width; derived), inside the ES-P300 57″ × 96″ maximum tested panel.
- Glass
GL-1 is drawn at 1 3/16″, the glass dimension in the head, intermediate, sill and jamb details, with a 5/8″ bite throughout.
- Muntins
One ¾″ profile, ES-H400-019, horizontal and vertical, on both faces with a spacer bar in the unit: the 4 × 5 pattern of the elevation.
- Detail callouts
Head, intermediate, muntin and sill bubbles on EL-300 resolve to SD-001 and SD-002; jamb and kiss mullion to SD-000.
- Profiles
Historic cap, subsill, aluminum trim and vertical muntin are drawn as new dies, so the exterior follows the historic profile.
