STAINLESS STEEL METAL PLATE

Product catalog summary

General Overview
This document provides a comprehensive guide on the specifications and requirements for stainless steel metal plate wall panels. It covers related requirements, definitions, reference standards, administrative requirements, submittals, quality assurance, mockups, delivery, storage, handling, site conditions, and warranty.

Specifications
The document specifies the use of stainless steel metal plate wall panels, detailing components necessary for a complete weather-tight wall system. It references standards from organizations such as AAMA and ASTM to ensure compliance with industry norms for water penetration, structural performance, and air leakage.

Procedures
Administrative requirements include coordination of panel assemblies with other construction elements, preinstallation meetings, and detailed submittal procedures. The importance of mockups is emphasized to verify selections and establish quality standards.

Standards and Testing
Reference standards include AAMA CW-RS-1 for rain screen principles and ASTM standards for structural and water penetration tests. Compliance with these standards is mandated to ensure the performance and durability of the wall panel system.

Recommendations
Recommendations include using a single source for metal plate wall panels, ensuring manufacturer and installer qualifications, and conducting field measurements before fabrication. Proper delivery, storage, and handling are advised to prevent damage.

Key Requirements
Key requirements include a warranty for the wall system and panel finish, compliance with LEED for sustainable design, and specific performance criteria for air infiltration and water penetration. Materials, finishes, and accessories necessary for the wall panel assembly are specified.

Critical Information
Critical information includes the need for a dry joint, pressure-equalized rainscreen system, and the use of stainless steel Type 304 or 316 with a No. 4 Bright Polished finish. The importance of maintaining a positive slope for drainage during storage and ensuring panels are not stored in contact with materials that could cause damage is outlined.

Examination
Before installation, examine substrates, work areas, and conditions to ensure compliance with installation tolerances and wall panel supports. Verify the installation of structural support members and weather barriers to prevent air infiltration or water penetration. Coordinate penetration locations relative to wall panel joints.

Preparation
Install miscellaneous framing such as sub-girts and base angles according to ASTM C 754 and manufacturer’s instructions.

Installation
Install wall panels following the manufacturer's instructions, using a pressure equalized rainscreen method. Panels should interlock progressively, allowing for thermal expansion. Ensure proper anchorage and weather-tight seals at panel openings. Flashing and trim should comply with SMACNA standards, ensuring watertight seams.

Tolerances
Align wall panel units with a tolerance of 1/4 inch in 20 feet, non-cumulative.

Field Quality Control
Engage a qualified testing agency for field tests and inspections, including water-spray tests for water penetration. Replace panels that do not meet specifications and perform additional tests as needed.

Cleaning
Clean finished surfaces and clear weep holes and drainage channels upon completion of installation.

Protection
Protect installed products from damage during further construction and replace any panels that are damaged beyond repair.
