Exterior Wall Panel Penetrations

Penetrations through the precast that may be required for wall hydrants, pipe penetrations and light fixtures can be cast into the panels provided the coordination for location and size is done early enough in the shop drawing development. Ideally, the location and size of these penetrations should be provided to Easi-Set designers about 8 weeks prior to fabrication. This is to ensure that the information can be incorporated into the shop drawings and fabrication drawings in adequate time. For openings less than 10-inches square, it is recommended that the penetrations be field cut. However, in no instance should the heavy-gauge stud frame be cut.
