GENERAL CONSTRUCTION NOTES
1. These instructions cover typical product application, fabrication, installation and standard
conditions and are general in nature. They provide useful guidelines, but the final distribution
drawings may include additional details specific to this project. Any conflict or discrepancies
must be clarified prior to execution.
2. Materials stored at the job site must be kept in a safe place removed from possible damage by
other trades. Stack with adequate separation so materials will not rub together, and store off the
ground. Cardboard or paper wrapped materials must be kept dry. Check arriving materials for
quantity and keep record of where various materials are stored.
3. All field welding must be done in accordance with AISC guidelines. All aluminum and glass
should be shielded from field welding to avoid damage from weld splatter. Results will be
unsightly and may be structurally unsound. Advise general contractor and other trades
accordingly.
4. Coordinate protection of installed work with general contractor and/or other trades.
5. Coordinate sequence of other trades which affect framing installation with the general contractor
(e.g. fire proofing, back up walls, partitions, ceiling, mechanical ducts, convectors, etc.).
6. General contractor should furnish and guarantee bench marks, offset lines and opening
dimensions. These items should be checked for accuracy before proceeding with erection. Make
certain that all adjacent substrate construction is in accordance with the contract documents
and/or approved shop drawings. If not, notify the general contractor in writing before
proceeding with installation because this could constitute acceptance of adjacent substrate
construction by others.
7. Isolate all aluminum to be placed directly in contact with masonry or other incompatible
materials with a heavy coat of zinc chromate or bituminous paint.
8. Sealant selection is the responsibility and option of the erector, installer and/or glazing contractor
and must be approved by the sealant manufacturer with regard to application and compatibility
for its intended use. All sealants must be used in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions and applied only by trained personnel to surfaces that have been properly prepared.
9. Sealant must be compatible with all materials with which they have contact, including other
sealant surfaces. Consult sealant manufacturer for recommendations relative to shelf life,
compatibility, cleaning of substrate, priming, tooling adhesion, etc.
10. Drainage gutters and weep holes must be kept clean at all times. Tubelite cannot accept
responsibility for improper drainage as a result of clogged gutters and weep holes.
11. This product requires clearances at head, sill and jambs to allow for thermal expansion and
contraction. Refer to final distribution drawings for joint sizes. Joints smaller than ¼” may be
subject to failure. Consult your sealant supplier.
12. All materials are to be installed plumb, level and true with regard to established bench marks and
column center lines established by the general contractor and checked by the erector, installer
and/or glazing contractor.
13. Cleaning of exposed aluminum surfaces should be done per AAMA recommendations.
14. Due to varying perimeter conditions and job performance requirements, anchor fasteners are not
specified in these instructions. For anchor fastening, refer to the shop drawings or consult the
fastener supplier.

15. Codes governing the design and use of products vary widely. Tubelite does not control the
selection of products configurations, operating hardware, or glazing materials, and assumes no
responsibility for these considerations. It is the responsibility of the owner, specifier, architect,
general contractor and the installer to make these selections in strict conformance with all
applicable codes.
16. Check our website, www.tubeliteinc.com, for the latest installation manual prior to commencing

OVERVIEW
Tubelite’s 14000 Series is available in thermal as well as non-thermal versions. There are also two
distinct methods for assembling the 14000 Series: screw spline assembly, and shear block (frame clip)
assembly.
The illustration below shows the elevation view of a typical 14000 Series installation. The number in the
top half of each circle is the number of a figure showing details of the associated system component; the
number in the bottom half of each circle gives the page number on which that figure appears.

The circles on this illustration come in pairs. The first circle in each pair gives the location of a drawing
of the non-thermal product; the second circle shows where you can find a drawing of the assembly
details for the corresponding thermal product. The drawings of horizontal details show the shear-block
method of assembly.

FRAME FABRICATION
Step #1: Determine frame size
Determine frame width
Check that the opening is square and plumb at
both ends. Units must be installed in a true
rectangle.
A
B
A=B
• Measure the width of the masonry opening at the top, middle and bottom.
• Select the smallest dimension measured. To determine the frame width to be used, subtract a
minimum of 1/2” from the smallest measured width, to allow a minimum of 1/4” at each jamb
for shimming and caulking. Allow a larger clearance if necessary to accommodate building
tolerances, sub sill, and out-of-square opening, and/or anticipated thermal expansion within
the unit.

Page 15 of 52
Determine frame height
• Measure the height of the masonry opening in several places along the entire length of the opening.
• To determine the frame height to be used, select the smallest dimension measured and subtract 1 1/8”
to allow a minimum of 5/8” at sill and 1/2” at head for shimming and caulking and to accommodate
E-14159 or T-14259 extruded flashing, building tolerances, an out-of-square opening, and/or
anticipated thermal expansion within the unit.
Step #2: Cut sub sill frame to size
• Cut sub sill (E-14159 or T-14259) to frame width + 1/8” determined in Step #1 above (rough
opening minus clearances). If the installation is to include an entrance, the sub sill should butt
against the back of the door jamb (no clearance).
• Sub sill longer than 24’ in length must be spliced using part number P-1144 for E14159 or T14259
sill. If sill must be spliced, allow 3/8” to 1/2” for the width of the splice.
• Expansion mullion require between every 16 – 20 feet of run with corresponding sub sill splice
located at the center of the daylight opening between vertical. The dimension of the expansion
mullion assembly should be adjusted based on the temperature at the time of assembly and expected
high and low service temperatures. For example, the sight line will be reduced slightly when
installed in hot weather and increased slightly when installed in cold weather.
Step #3: Cut vertical framing members to size
• Verticals should be the frame height found in Step #1 above (rough opening height minus
clearances).
• As shown in the elevation overview on page 9 above, vertical framing members run through.
Page 16 of 52
Step #4: Cut horizontal framing members to size
• Cut horizontal framing members to the daylight opening (the distance between verticals).
• For easier installation, cut horizontal glazing beads 1/32” shorter than the horizontal framing member.
Step #5: Field drill weep holes in extruded sub sill
• E-14159 (and T-14259) extruded sill requires two weep holes in each light, 2”-3” from each side of
the vertical mullion and at the quarter points. As shown in the illustration below, the weep holes.
Weep holes in extruded sub sill
Page 17 of 52
3D view showing installed sub sill with weep hole
Step #6 (screw spline assembly): Drill holes in vertical framing members
In screw-spline assembly, screws are driven through holes in the vertical members, directly into screw
splines on the horizontal members. These screws are what support the horizontal members and the
glass. The six drawings in this section show where to drill the holes in the vertical members so that they
line up with the screw splines on the horizontals.
•
The screw used for screw-spline assembly is #10-24 x 1” type 23 phillips hex head (S-202). To
accommodate this type of screw, the holes in the vertical framing members must be .201” in
diameter, corresponding to a #7 drill.
•
Tubelite offers a drill fixture (P-1139) to help locate the correct hole locations quickly and
accurately. This fixture is designed for use on both screw-spline and shear-block projects.

Page 25 of 52
Step #6 (shear block assembly): Drill holes in vertical framing members
In screw-spline assembly, screws pass through holes in the vertical members, connecting them directly
to the horizontal members. In shear-block assembly, the installer
•
Secures frame clips (also known as shear blocks) to the vertical members with screws;
•
Slides the horizontal members over the frame clips; and finally
•
Secures the horizontal members to the frame clips with screws.
The screws used to secure frame clips to verticals require use of a #25 drill (.149” diameter). Tubelite
recommends using a drill fixture (P-1139) to facilitate quick and accurate drilling of holes in verticals
for shear-block assembly projects. The following four illustrations show where to drill shear-block
verticals to accommodate various types of horizontal framing members.

Drilling a door jamb (E-14021) -- Shear-block, non-thermal, next to a door
Page 30 of 52
Step #7 (shear-block assembly): Drill holes in horizontal framing members
Screw-spline assembly does not require drilling of horizontal framing members, because screw splines
are integral to the extrusions for horizontals. The shear block assembly method, on the other hand,
requires drilling of horizontals, so that they can be fastened to frame clips (shear blocks).
The illustrations in this section show the locations where holes must be drilled in the various kinds of
horizontals for use in shear-block assembly. The illustrations also show the required drill sizes, because
the shear-block assembly method uses screws of two different diameters to secure horizontals to frame
clips.

Page 34 of 52
Step #8 (if needed): Cut glazing adapters to length
For installations that use 1/4” or 1/2” glass, it will be necessary to install glazing adapters (E-14036 or
E14061 respectively) in the glazing pockets of the vertical and horizontal framing members that
surround the lights to be glazed with 1/4” or 1/2” glass.
•
For verticals, glazing adapters should be 3/32” longer than the vertical daylight opening (DLO)
of the light.
•
For horizontals, the length of the glazing adapters should equal the horizontal DLO, which is the
same length as the horizontal framing members in which the adapters will be installed.
Page 35 of 52
Step #9 (if needed): Steel Reinforcing
Page 36 of 52
•
Cut steel reinforcing channel, P1437, 4” shorter than mullion length. Paint ends
to prevent rust.
•
Insert steel into the mullion. Align and center the steel with mullion, then drill
through the deep pocket of the mullion and the steel at 16” O.C. Drill 0.213”
diameter through holes in both.
•
Tap #3 holes in the steel channel only, for use for #10 flat head fastener.
•
Do not attach the steel channel at this time. Steel reinforcing is attached to the
vertical just prior to snapping the frame portions together.
FRAME INSTALLATION
If there is an entrance, you should install it first, taking care to locate the entrance frame accurately
within the opening.
Step #1 (if needed): Splice the sub sill where required per final distribution dwgs.
• Set splice in a bed of sealant at the predetermine splice location.
• Place and anchor the sill in the opening. The gap between any two pieces of sill should be 3/8” to
1/2” wide.
• Apply silicone sealant between the two pieces of sub sill spanning the splice joint.

Step #2: Seal and anchor the sub sill
• At jamb conditions attach a P1153 end dam to the end of the sill with two S196 screws and seal the
sill to the end dam as shown in the illustration on page 38. Cap and seal screws and screw heads.
• Butt the sub sill up against the back of the door jamb (if present) and seal the sill to the back of the
entrance frame as shown in the illustration on page 39 – 41.
• Place shims (not by Tubelite) under the flashing as needed to support the sill and level it.
• Perimeter anchors should be located within 6” of each side of vertical mullion. THIS IS FOR
GENERAL ERECTION PROCEDURES ONLY. For actual job conditions, refer to shop
drawings for appropriate fastener and hole locations as determined by a qualified engineer or
consult the project design professional.
• Drill holes for anchor bolts through the sill and into the masonry, and secure the sill with bolts, as
specified in the approved shop drawings. DO NOT DRILL THROUGH THERMAL BARIER.
• Cap seal all anchor bolts with silicone sealant. Before the fastener is inserted, force sealant into the
hole for the sill perimeter fastener to ensure that the hole through the sill is sealed.

Certain horizontals are not compatible with standard frame clips (shear blocks). These horizontals
require the installer to modify frame clips in the field.

Step #4 (screw spline only): Install assembled units
• Apply sealant to end of horizontal as shown in the illustration n page 40.
Sealing horizontal before final assembly
• Install the assembled units beginning at the entrance, and working toward the jambs. If there is no
entrance, begin at one jamb and work toward the other, as in the illustration below.
Installing assembled screw-spline units
• In the case of smaller units, the last two may need to be snapped together and then pivoted into
position together, as in the illustration on page 41.

Step #5: Attach frame to masonry
• For shear-block assembly, set the assembled unit into the opening. (For screw-spline assembly, this
was done in pieces in Step #4 above.)
• Install shims at head and jambs, as shown in the illustration below. Use a P1745 to provide back-up
support for shimming. Align oversized holes in P1745's with countersunk holes in the pockets.

Shimming and anchoring the head and jambs
• Attach the jambs and head to the perimeter of the opening with suitable fasteners. Perimeter anchors
should be located within 6” of each side of vertical mullion. THIS IS FOR GENERAL ERECTION
PROCEDURES ONLY. For actual job conditions, refer to shop drawings for appropriate
fastener and hole locations as determined by a qualified engineer or consult the project design
professional.

Step #6: Install P1135 Water Diverters
• Use MEK and a clean cloth to clean the surfaces of the horizontals where you will install water
diverters. Also clean the vertical reglets on both sides to at least 1” above the gasket reglets on the
horizontal member.

• When the surfaces are dry, butter the underside of the P1135 with sealant and press the diverter to
the horizontal in the glazing pocket.
• Pump sealant into both vertical gasket reglets, and seal the edges of the diverter on all sides
EXCEPT the edge facing the pocket. You must avoid getting sealant in this area in order to allow
the system to drain.
• Seal the joint between the vertical and horizontal members from the diverter to the top of the
horizontal gasket reglet.

GLAZING INSTALLATION
All glazing pockets are 1 7/16” wide, and will accept glazing up to and including 1 1/8” thick, dry
glazed.
3/4" See illustration below.
Glass dimensions should not exceed day light opening (D.L.O.) plus 7/8”.

Nominal glass dimensions
This formula does not take into account out-of-square openings or glass tolerances. Consult your glass
manufacturer before determining final glass sizes.
When cutting gaskets, you should add 1/16” to 1/8” per foot of daylight opening for shrinkage. (An
eighth of an inch per foot is approximately 1%.) Open, unsealed gasket joints are a potential source of
leakage, and water damage to interior finishes.
When installing gaskets, always begin at each ends of the gasket and work toward the center. DO NOT
STRETCH THE GASKET OR IT WILL RETURN TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM, CREATING GAPS
AT THE GASKET INTERSECTIONS.

Step #1: Cut and install the interior gaskets
• Cut interior vertical gaskets to D.L.O. + 1”.
• Install gaskets on the side of frame opposite glass stop first.
• Apply sealant in the gasket reglet for 1” from the intersection of the vertical member.
• Install the interior vertical gaskets, at each end and work toward the center, firmly pushing the gasket
in place.
• Cut the interior horizontal gaskets to D.L.O. + 1”.
Page 50 of 52
• Apply sealant in the gasket reglet for 1” from the intersection of the horizontal member.
• Install the interior horizontal gaskets, at each end and work toward the center, firmly pushing the
gasket in place.
• Apply butyl sealant at the intersect area to marry the vertical and horizontal glazing gaskets. Tool all
sealant to present a neat, clean appearance.
Step #2: Install the glass
• Position setting blocks at points under glass at each quarter point (2 setting blocks per light) or as
required.
• Position the glass in the frame.
• Lower the glass onto the setting blocks.
Step #3: Cut and install the exterior gaskets
• Cut the exterior vertical gaskets to D.L.O. + 1”.
• Install the exterior vertical gaskets, at each end and work toward the center, firmly pushing the
gasket in place.
• Cut the exterior horizontal gaskets to D.L.O. + 1”.
• Install the exterior vertical gaskets, at each end and work toward the center, firmly pushing the
gasket in place.
• Run a bead of sealant along vertical reglets where glass stop meets, then install glass stop.
• Install the exterior horizontal gaskets, at each end and work toward the center, firmly pushing the
gasket in place.
Step #4: Seal perimeter of installation
• Insert backer rod into the gap between the frame and the building substrate on top, sides, and bottom
of the installation.
• Apply sealant to fill the void.
• Tool the sealant smooth.
