D. Installing Stationary Work Surfaces
Stationary work surfaces are available in many shapes and sizes, however, they all require similar installation methods.
Most work surfaces have a full radius bull nosed edge treatment along the user facing edge(s), while the non-user edges have a flat edge
treatment. However, on work surfaces that have corner radii or curved contours, the bull nosed edge will traverse along the contour and along
each edge adjacent to the radius.
Refer to your office plan layout to determine the location of individual work
surfaces. Most work surfaces will fall into one of the following categories.
However, there may be minor variations in each category that are not shown (see figure 24).
Linear Work Surfaces
attach to a base core frame and are equal in width to the core frame to which they attach. They are available
in several depths, and the depth is constant along the entire width. Some stationary linear work surfaces have an attached
adjustable keyboard surface.
(Refer step 11 in in section IV for adjustable keyboard work surface assembly instructions.)
Corner Work Surfaces
attach to two core frames that are connected at 90 degrees. The size of the corner work surface is such that
the lengths of the surface’s mounting edges are equal to the lengths of the (2) core frames to which they attach. The 90 degree
corner of the work surface may be a sharp corner or it may be truncated at 45 degrees. The truncated corner aligns with a third base
core frame that transitions at 45 degrees between the flanking 90 degree base core frames. The user facing bull nose edge of the
corner work surface may be straight or curved. Some stationary linear work surfaces have an attached adjustable keyboard surface.
Concave Angular Work Surfaces
are similar to linear work surfaces, but with one or two mitered edges. Each mitered edge abuts
the mitered edge of an adjacent work surface when used on the concave side of an angular core configuration.
Convex Wedge Work Surfaces
fill the angular gap between adjacent linear work surfaces when they are attached to the convex side
of an angular core configuration. Convex wedge work surfaces are available in various angles and depths. The user facing bull nose
edge may be curved or straight, depending on the application. The angled sides of the wedge may differ, in order to transition to
abutting work surfaces of different depths. Some wedge work surfaces may require a post leg for additional support.
Transitional Work Surfaces
are similar to linear work surfaces, however, in addition to the bull nosed primary edge, the bull nose
continues around at least one additional side of the work surface, running back to the base core frame to which it attaches. These
work surfaces are usually used to end a run of work surfaces where it is desirable to have a round corner instead of the relatively
sharp corner of a linear work surface. It is common for the transitional surfaces to be used adjacent to a lift work surface.
Linear Conference Bridge Work Surfaces
are similar to linear work surfaces, however, the user facing edge protrudes outward to
create a personal conference space. The protruding edge requires an additional post leg for support. Although not required, the
conference bridge usually has an abutting linear work surface on each side.
Peninsula Work Surfaces
are similar to conference bridges, however they protrude out further than the conference bridge. The
peninsula work surface usually attaches to a narrower base core than the conference bridges. Peninsula work surfaces also require
a post style support leg for additional support.
Conference End Work Surfaces
are half round work surface that protruded beyond the end of a run of cores. These are only used in
double sided applications where there are work surfaces on both sides of the core. The conference end work surface requires post
style support leg(s) for support.
