		C.	Steel Components:
			1.	Clean surfaces after fabrication and immediately prior to application of primer in accord with manufacturer's recommendations.
			2.	Apply specified shop coat primer in accord with manufacturer's instructions to provide 2.0 mil (0.05 mm) minimum dry film thickness.
		D.	Fabricate components true to detail and free from defects impairing appearance, strength or durability. Contour outdoor horizontal or purlin glazing retainers to minimize water ponding and ice or snow buildup.
		E.	Fabricate components to allow for accurate and rigid fit of joints and corners. Match components carefully ensuring continuity of line and design. Ensure joints and connections will be flush and weathertight. Ensure slip joints make full, tight contact and are weathertight.
		F.	Reinforce components at anchorage and support points, at joints, and at attachment points for interfacing work.
		G.	Glass: Accurately size glass to fit openings allowing clearances following recommendations of "Glazing Manual" published by Flat Glass Marketing Association.
		H.	Cut glass clean and carefully. Nicks and damaged edges will not be accepted. Replace glass that has damaged edges.
