    While you have made the detailing easier by pushing the window out, I think that most windows will be recessed and therefore will need a manu stone sill piece. You could include a manu stone sill in another wall section that you are developing, but it needs to be somewhere.

01.030.0332 Base of Wall | Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing, CMU Foundation

01.030.0332 Base of Wall | Anchored Brick Veneer, CMU Backing, CMU Foundation This detail illustrates a base of wall condition with a partially grouted and reinforced concrete masonry foundation. Below grade waterproofing and an air/moisture/vapor barrier above grade provide continuous resistance to air and moisture, and continuous insulation offers excellent thermal control. The flexible thru-wall flashing is supported across the cavity with rigid insulation and grout. An optional cavity drainage insert protects the weep vents from becoming obstructed. The detail incorporates a vertical brick expansion joint and a vertical control joint at the block backing. Finish grade is held away from the wall with a gravel mowing strip protecting the masonry against moisture. A system of flashing and weeps at the base allow moisture to exit the drainage cavity. The durable drip edge guards against moisture reentry and may be notched to avoid excessively thick laps.

10.030.0732 Lintel rebuild | Terra cotta, pressed

This detail illustrates a modern rebuild strategy for replacing existing architectural terra cotta (TC) cornice, balustrade parapet, and accessory units. The existing TC is replaced with new hand pressed TC units, installed not filled, with weep holes at the underside of each overhanging unit; each secured with new stainless-steel anchorage. In restoring and rebuilding these types of historic wall systems, moisture mitigation is critical to their long-term preservation and performance.  Moisture management measures in this detail include horizontal skyward-facing joint treatment of sealant or lead T-caps, an integrated flashing system installed in the cornice, and stainless-steel through-wall flashing under the coping. The flashing system in the cornice includes a self-adhering flashing secured by a termination bar with continuous sealant, a stainless-steel drip edge, and weeps in the vertical joints. The through-wall flashing includes integral stainless-steel drip edges and we...
