Non-Structural Parapet
Nucor's Non-Structural Parapet Systems consist of extended wall
panels and a (18 gauge) spacer 10’-0” long to
provide structural support. Typically these types of parapets are used on buildings
with lower roof slopes.
At the high eave parapet condition,
the minimum height above the roof steel line is 10”.
The maximum height above the roof steel line is 3’-6”.
At the rake parapet condition, the minimum height above
the roof steel line is 10”. The maximum height above
the roof steel line at the rake condition is 3’-6”.
Allowable heights above the roof line for non-structural
parapets varies based on codes and loads in your specific
local. Please be sure to consult with sales engineering
or estimating prior to qualifying the type required.
Standard
parapet back panel is to be “Classic Wall”™ panel, 26 gauge, and Galvalume® in color. The parapet cap
trim color will match the wall panel color.
When defining
the non-structural parapet for order placement, please include
the elevation for the top of the parapet, the specific location
requirements for the parapet, and the back panel requirements.
Non-structural parapets are not an option at the low eave
of the building. |
