Round:
22 gauge spiral duct from the fan to 28 gauge spiral ducts for the end branch ducts, No extra reinforcement required with beaded sleeve joints. . . . A light weight system

Flat Oval:
20 gauge flat oval duct from the fan to 28 gauge spiral round ducts for the end branch ducts, F-20 reinforcement is used on 4 foot centers for only the flat surfaces.
. . . A medium weight system

Rectangular:
18 gauge duct from the fan with H-48 reinforcement plus F+rod intermediate reinforcement to 22 gauge with no reinforcement or 26 gauge with A-26 reinforcement on 5 foot centers for the end branch ducts.
. . . A heavy weight system
