    Enter Loading Type (R or T):                           7 1" x 4" x .375" Aluminum Tube or "T" Mullion  
     R = Rectangular or Point Loaded, T = Trapezoidal/Triangular or Uniformly Loaded;  See "Load Areas" tab or approvals for examples. If unsure, use Rectangular Loading.   8 2" x 4" x .125" Aluminum Tube Mullion  
      9 2" x 6" x .125" Aluminum Tube Mullion  
    Mullion Design Pressures and the corresponding Anchor/Clip Capacity required are show in the table to the right. Choose a specific mullion that exceeds your opening's Design Pressure. 10 2" x 8" x .125" Aluminum Tube Mullion  
    11 2" x 4" x .25" Aluminum Tube Mullion  
    Enter Mullion Type (1-20): Design Pressure Req'd is:  psf Load on Mullion Anchors/Clip is:  lbs   12 2" x 6" x .25" Aluminum Tube Mullion  
                                  13 3.25" 30 Degree Aluminum Bay Mullion  
      Optional Design Pressure Reduction:   14 3.25" 45 Degree Aluminum Bay Mullion  
        If your Mullion's Design Pressure is much higher than what your structure's opening actually requires, you may reduce the Mullion's Design Pressure. This lowers the anchor capacity required and could give you additional anchor options or require less anchors.   15 1" x 2.5" x .125" Aluminum Tube Mullion, Sentinel  
          16 1" x 3" x .125" Aluminum Tube Mullion, Sentinel

     * Indicates that the Clip & Anchor option does not meet the minimum capacity required for the mullion's required Design Pressure. It may be possible to input the Min. Required Design Pressure in the Optional Design Pressure Reduction section above to obtain more favorable anchor/clip options. N/A indicates that the anchor's tested spacing prohibits its use in this instance regardless of Design Pressure.
