Abstract
Draining sills, frame assemblies incorporating the draining sills, and methods of using the same are described herein. The draining sills include a primary drain channel and one or more shorter auxiliary channels to capture and control water passing over the sill. The auxiliary channels provide additional fluid control capability to the draining sills which may be useful in locations where the flow rate of water passing over the sill may be increased.
