If ever near-by in the same room, I will seek to avoid standing next to you guys!

Actually, if the perforated pastry units were to be furnished as part of a project meeting requirement, then it should be included under the 01 31 19 number sequence.

I served on the Institute Education Committee with Bob Hockaday (who is from Hawaii). I remember him telling a story about an architect there who specified that a luau for the project team had to be held as part of the project closeout!

The late Fred Tilp, one of the very first members of CSI, used to include a chill recipe along with the cold weather requirements for concrete.

He was always a fun guy to be around.

OK, this one’s serious. Suggestions, please, for the Division and Section that a Knox-Box (High security Industrial/Government Key Box) should be specified. My immediate thought is 087916.

Can also be located in 08 79 13 - Key Storage Equipment.

Evidently, there is also Section 104116 Emergency Access (or Key) Cabinet. That might make the fire marshall happier.

Lynn,

You should start a new thread on this one.

Since Knox-Boxes are a small commodity piece, I specify them in 087100 - Door Hardware. I can’t imagine figuring out enough verbiage to make a separate section.

Anonymous: I agree - it’s something I learned as high school newspaper editor. However, since more jurisdictions are demanding these, I’m wondering if a one page section that would show up in the Table of Contents wouldn’t make more sense.

Perhaps it would fall under “Fire Command Center Specialties,” and could include storage cabinets for building plans and other fire services-mandated items.

As usual, I’m behind again, but like Lynn we put the Knox box in 104116 Fire Department Key Box.

Section 10 41 16?

A whole spec Section for a 4" x 5" x 3" metal box with a specially-keyed door?

It’s practically overkill to have an article in the door hardware spec devoted to it, but that’s how I handle it.

Remember, Masterformat is for specifications and not for data filing. Some day there may be a CSI-produced format for data filing.
