This letter is in response to the code case letter dated 09/10/19 regarding changing the front windows from 3
windows to 2 windows with a gap filler.
We met on -site with the owner and inspected the window attachment and mullion connection. The owner
removed the existing triple window and replaced with a pair of single hung windows with (2) 2x6 mullions. The
existing jambs, header and sill remained. The mullion is attached with (2) 1"xl"xl %" metal angles with (4) 3/16"
diameter tapcons to the concrete and (4) 3116" diameter wood screws to the mullion, top and bottom.
Based on our observation we believe the windows were attached correctly per the Florida Product Approval
#19715.3, and meet the design wind pressures based on the Florida Building Code, 6'" Edition. The mullion is
acceptable and exceeds the capacity required.
If you have any questions, please call our office.
