Laws and Regulations: Master Construction Specifications
555.2
DISCREPANCIES
555.2.1
Section 33, Drywall Construction, refers to partitions extending above
suspended ceilings contrary to system rules.
555.2.2
Section 33 also describes suspended ceilings which would not meet the
subsystem performance requirements. Since there are a number of
different ways that a ceiling could be detailed within the limits set by the
Prototype Design, appropriate specifications cannot be written until the
specific design has been developed for an actual building project.
555.2.3
There are currently no Master Specifications for prestressed or precast
structural concrete, and these are both generic design options within the
Prototype Design.
555.2.4
