5.2 Design Professional Responsibilities
a) Specify “AWI Standards” in each applicable specification section.
b) Examine product technical data sheets to determine if material performance (e.g. scratch and wear resistance) is appropriate for the project.
c) A single source manufacturer/supplier specializing in architectural panels and veneer faces is highly recommended to coordinate and manufacture each paneling elevation consisting of end-matched and/or architectural blueprint-matched veneer panels.
a) Accessories, cutouts, and locations
b) Support bracket placement, quantity, manufacturer, and model number
c) Grain or pattern direction
d) Chemical resistant finish or surfaces
e) Flame spread rating
f) Moisture resistance
g) Seismic fabrication and/or installation
h) Insulation from adjacent heating and cooling sources
i) Interior clearance
j) Illustrate/identify specific trim and/or moulding profiles required
k) Overall Product finished thickness
l) Color requirements for opaque finish
m) Glass type, thickness, edge treatment and glazing requirements
n) Unique panel surface patterns on elevation illustrations
o) Design, engineering, specifications and drawings for paneling assembly anchorage and/or suspension
p) Specific installation hardware and/or related paneling mounting systems, including design, engineering, specifications and drawings for paneling suspension
a) Species or engineered material (e.g. reconstituted)
b) AWI Finishing System Number or Finishing Technology
c) Staining requirements for transparent finishes
d) Grain direction
a) Cut (plain, quartered, rift)
a) Method of slicing (plain, quartered, rift, or rotary)
b) Core type
c) Veneer matching requirements
d) Veneer figure and other unique visual characteristics are not a function of a veneer species and/or its grade. If required, Design Professional/Specifier shall identify such veneer figure and visual characteristics in the contract documents.
e) If the Design Professional has pre-selected/identified specific veneer(s) for project, then the project specifications are to identify the veneer supplier and the flitch number(s).
a) Pattern and color
b) Pattern direction
c) Core type
d) Material grade
e) Laminate finish
5.3 Surface Categories
a) Surfaces normally visible after installation
a) Surfaces not normally visible after installation
