Additional Information
Details in this book portray standard wall assembly scenarios. Each assembly has been provided in all standard thickness’s of ArmorWall to aid in design and submittal. Gauge of structural members is portrayed as minimum allowable and spacing is shown as maximum distance. Heavier framing and closer spacing is acceptable. Although many assemblies have been provided in this book, not all possible assemblies may have been covered so please contact MaxLife Industries for further possibilities. It is required that the Design Team and/or Contractor review all local governing code to capture any requirements resulting in changes prior to implementation.
