Exposed & Finish Work · Expanded master guide
Exposed Architectural Duct
Ten expanded field guides for exposed architectural duct: spiral, painted, rectangular, flat oval, decorative penetrations, linear diffusers, double wall, stainless, roof transitions, and seismic bracing.
Exposed work is judged twice.
The system still has to function, but the sightline, seams, hangers, joints, finish, labels, and cleanup also remain visible when the room is done.
