and where appropriate, the general position of infills in the assembly. In
addition, if certain infills have a fixed size, it is helpful to indicate these as
well. Different infill types are separated with a “+” symbol. These are loose
guidelines at best; the very flexibility of door/window assembly styles and
virtually unlimited combination of infills and grids makes it impossible to
develop a fixed naming convention that will apply to all conditions:
<Infill Type> <Optional Infill Size> <Optional Infill Position> <Optional Cell Adjustment
Parameter> + <Next Infill Type>....<Optional Door/Window Assembly Shape>
NOTE Door/Window Assemblies with no shape specified are assumed to be
rectangular. In the case of a very complex door/window assembly, you may choose
to omit some of the less prominent infill types and parameters, choosing instead
to include them in a more complete style description.
Example Door/Window Assembly Style Names:
Example NameDoor/Window Assembly Style Descrip-
tion
Windows4-0 Ctr Grow + Transom 2-0 Ctr
Arched
An arched assembly with 4’ windows and
a two foot tall arched transoms, centered,
with both side cells configured to grow as
the assembly width is changed until the 4’
size can be accommodated
Hinged Double 6-0x6-8 + Sidelights +
Transom
Hinged double door with variable width
sidelights on each side and a transom.
Hinged Single 3-9x6-8 Right + Sidelight
+ Transom
A hinged single door on the right side with
a single sidelight and a transom.
Best Practices for Door/Window Assembly Styles:
■ All assembly components should have materials assigned to them.
■ Door/Window Assembly styles should be classified for more control with
scheduling and display control. This is especially important with assemblies
that are explicitly intended to be included in a window or door schedule
as a mulled unit.
