Work surfaces shall be constructed to prevent warpage. [Work surfaces
shall be either fully supported from the panels [or spine wall] or
supported jointly by the panels [or spine wall] and supplemental legs,
pedestals, or furniture end panels. Supplemental end supports shall be
used only under work surfaces when the work station configuration does not
permit full support by the panels [or spine wall]. Metal support brackets
shall be used to support work surfaces from the panels [or spine wall],
provide metal-to-metal fitting to the vertical uprights of the panels [or
spine wall], shall be vertically adjustable, and shall lock the work
surfaces in place without panel [or spine wall] modifications.] [Work
surfaces shall be fully floor supported with legs, pedestals, or furniture
end panels.] Abutting work surfaces shall mate closely and be at equal
heights when used in side-by-side configurations in order to provide a
continuous and level work surface. Work surfaces shall either have
pre-drilled holes to accommodate storage components, pedestals and
additional supports, or holes shall be able to be drilled at the job site
to accommodate these items. Work surfaces shall be provided in sizes and
configurations shown on the drawings. Work surfaces shall be available in
nominal depths of [510 mm 20 inches,] [and] [610 mm 24 inches,] [and] [760
mm 30 inches,] plus or minus 50 mm 2 inches, nominal lengths from 610 to
1830 mm 24 to 72 inches, and a nominal thickness from 25 to 45 mm 1 to
1-3/4 inches. Work surfaces shall be height adjustable in 25 to 40 mm 1 to
1 1/2 inch increments from 630 to 1040 mm 25 to 41 inches above the
finished floor. Work surfaces abutting at equal heights shall provide a
continuous and level work surface. [Corner work surfaces,] [peninsula work
surfaces,] [and] [counter/transaction work surfaces] shall be provided as
shown on the drawings and shall include hardware necessary to provide firm
and rigid support.
2.3.1

with ordinary household cleaning solutions. Metal support brackets shall
match the color and finish of trim. Edges shall be [post formed or vinyl
molding] [solid wood].
