Shell Alignment

As the glazing consultant on hundreds of luxury homes I have been on the jobsites helping to lay out and correct the shell every step of the way and then lay out the window plan. I am the GC's expert assistant to help execute the architect's vision through the complex and messy process of building a super luxury custom home.

This residence in Boca Raton actually had a pretty good shell overall but this angled corner was a miss. the overhead beam was nearly 2" outside of the foundation (which was pretty obvious from the vertical column). Laying out the symmetrical alignment for the 12' tall storefront windows for order sizing and the installers is a complex process too.
