Control stage 02 of 06

Technical Definition

Translate design intent into mesh structure, material direction, opening, orientation, finish, edge and interface requirements.

Buyer decision protectedArchitectural intent becomes a technical brief that contractors and procurement teams can review together.

Five questions that close this stage

Use these questions to prepare the review, compare scope and identify what is still unresolved before the next release.

01Purpose

Why must this stage happen?

Mesh appearance alone does not define material, orientation, edge treatment, support or fabrication limits. Technical definition connects the visual target to the installed condition and the questions a sample must answer.

02Buyer input

What should the buyer provide?

Application and viewing conditions
Support zones, fixing access and adjacent construction
Material and finish direction
Required openness, scale or visual reference

03JBL Metal review

What does JBL Metal check?

Structure and orientation
Material and finish compatibility
Panel or roll boundaries
Edge, interface and installation implications

04Risk if omitted

What can happen if it is skipped?

A model is selected from one photograph
Opening direction is omitted
Finish expectations are not tied to a physical reference

05Controlled output

What moves forward next?

Defined selection criteria
Project-specific open fields
Technical direction for sampling and quotation

Evidence for the next decision

What can document this stage

Technical direction note
Defined open fields on the drawing
Selection criteria for sample and quotation

Order-specific control

What stays connected to the record

Model is not selected by appearance alone
Long opening and rod directions are explicitly recorded where applicable
Material, finish and interfaces are reviewed with the mesh

Buyer FAQ

Questions to resolve at stage 02

Why is a model number insufficient?

The same product family can change with material, orientation, size, finish, edge and support conditions.

When should installation be discussed?

During system definition, before panel limits, edges and accessories are fixed.

What should remain project-specific?

Final dimensions, material, finish, interfaces, responsibilities and performance assumptions remain tied to the approved project documents.
