<br />Tape sealants - Service Temperature Range (Degrees): Min -60F (-50C); Max 212F (1000)
<br />INDEPENDENT MEZZANINES
<br />Independent mezzanines must be designed by a professional engineer. The engineer must ensure that proper
<br />isolation from the VP building has been provided to avoid structural damage due to differential movements, or
<br />inadvertently apply loads to the VP structure. VP accepts no responsibility for the design of the Independent
<br />mezzanine.
<br />FIRE CODE COMPLIANCE
<br />It Is the responsibility of the project design professional and builder to comply with local fire code regulations
<br />including consideration of, but not limited to, building use and occupancy, all building construction materials,
<br />separation requirements, egress requirements, fire protection systems, etc. Builder shall advise VP of any
<br />special requirements to be furnished by VP.
<br />SSR roof fire tested to ASTM 13108-93-Class A rating.
<br />VP steel roof systems are defined by IBC as Fire Class A roof assemblies (Sec 1505.2).
<br />VP SSR steel roof systems are available for FM Class 1 fire rating.
<br />UL 263 approved fire rated assemblies listed as Design No. P265, P268 and P516.
<br />FIELD MODIFICATIONS
<br />Modifications to this building from details and Instructions contained on these drawings must be approved In
<br />writing by VP Building engineers, or other licensed structural engineer. This Includes, but Is not limited to.
<br />removal of roof or wall cladding, removing or moving any flange braces or rod braces, cutting of openings for

<br />structure beyond what is specified for this building In the contract documents. VP Buildings, Inc. accepts no
<br />responsibility for the consequences of any unauthorized additions, alterations, or added loads to this structure.
<br />Per VP Builder Memo ABM-001, if the builder Intends to invoice VP Buildings for modifications In excess of
<br />$1000, the builder must notify VP Buildings immediately, and obtain a Work Authorization from VP Buildings
<br />prior to proceeding. All final claims must be submitted to VP Buildings with all supporting documentation
<br />within 30 days of the building completion. Claims submitted without work authorizations, or after 30 days will
<br />not be accepted. Correction of minor misfits, shimming and plumbing, moderate amount of reaming, drilling,
<br />chipping I cutting and minor welding are considered by Code of Standard Practice to be part of erection are
<br />not subject to claim reimbursement.
<br />CONCRETEIMASONRYICONVENTIONAL STUD WALLS
<br />The engineer responsible for the design of the wall system Is responsible for coordinating With, or specifying to
<br />VP Buildings, any wall to steel compatibility Issues such as drift and deflection compatibility, special base
<br />details, and wall to VP steel connections. All fasteners, sealant and counter Hashing of wall systems are to
<br />be provided by contractor. The engineer responsible for the wall shall design the anchorage to VP supporting
<br />elements consistent with Code required forces Including ASCE7-05 Sec,12.11.
<br />PANELS
<br />011 canning Isan Inherent characteristic of cold farmed steel panels. It Is the result of several factors that
<br />Include Induced stresses In the raw material delivered to VP, fabrication methods, Installation procedures, and
<br />post Installation thermal forces. Thru fastened panels will exhibit some dimpling when Installed, especially when
<br />insulation is installed between panels and secondary supports. Dimpling can be minimized by careful
<br />Installation, taking care not to over drive fasteners.
<br />Roof rumble Is a phenomenon that Is caused by wind gusts lifting up on the roof panels and then springing
<br />back into place. All panels experience this action to some degree, especially with concealed clip panels such
<br />as SSR and SLR Roof rumble noise may be minimized by providing a layer of blanket Insulation between
<br />the panels and any hard support surface such as steel secondary members, substrates such as plywood, steel
<br />decking, or rigid board Insulation. A minimum of 31nch thick blanket Is recommended over steel secondary
<br />members, or 2Inch over substrates. .
<br />011 canning, dimpling, and roof rumble do not affect the structural Integrity or weather rightness of the panels
<br />and is not grounds for rejection of panels.
<br />The SSR/SLR joint.detail Is designed with an interlocking feature for ease of Installation. However, It is
<br />Imperative that Installed SSRISLR panels be secured to the secondary structural members and properly seamed
<br />prior to departure from the job site each day.
<br />SKYLIGHTS -
<br />Vp's Tunites and VP's domed skylight have been tested to support a 300 lb. load overa 1 sq. ft.. area, as
<br />well as uniform gravity and upllk load test Local building departments may require added fall restraint due
<br />to conditions that may affect the skylight structural Integrity. It is the responsibility of the builder to
<br />determine and provide any added fall restraint under the skylight as maybe required by your building
<br />department
<br />RAIN WATER RUNOFF.
<br />Drainage systems must be designed by the project professional to comply with code requirements. VP is
<br />not responsible for drainage designs, overflow scuppers, down piping, etc. The project professional and
<br />contractor are responsible to ensure that primary drains and overflow devices such as scuppers and auxiliary
<br />drains are provided as required for the required min Intensity at the building perimeter and at valley conditions
<br />to prevent ponding.
<br />STEEL SHOP COAT
<br />The purpose of VPs shop coal Is to provide protection forthe steel members during transportation, during
<br />temporary job site storage and during erection. Standard shop formulation Is not designed to perform as a
<br />finish coat when exposed to environmental conditions. Members shall be kept free of the ground and properly
<br />drained during job site storage. If Is the Builder's responsibility to ensure that if a finish coat is being applied
<br />over VP shop coat that the painting contractor verifies compatibility between hls finish coat and VPs shop
<br />coat. See VP Builder Memo NBM-001 & NBM-002.
