Architectural exteriors in North Florida: what to know

An office exterior is chosen for how the building should present itself, then attached to the steel. Brick veneer and stucco are common, as are fiber cement panels, metal composite panels and ribbon windows. A parapet hides a low-slope roof and the rooftop units, while a pitched roof with shingles or standing seam suits a more residential setting. The wall framing behind the cladding is detailed for the wind load and for drainage, so water that gets past the face finds its way back out.
