1.1 General

This fenestration Standard/Specification applies to both operating and fixed, new construction and replacement windows, doors, SSPs, TDDs, roof windows, and unit skylights. This fenestration Standard/Specification is material-neutral and establishes performance requirements for windows, doors, SSPs, TDDs, roof windows, and unit skylights including their components and materials. This Standard/Specification concerns itself with the determination of Performance Grade (PG), Allowable Stress Design (ASD) design pressure (DP), and related performance ratings for windows, doors, SSPs, TDDs, roof windows, and unit skylights and is based on laboratory testing of products in standard fixtures. This Standard/Specification is not intended to test or address the use or installation of the product.

Performance requirements are used in this Standard/Specification when possible. Prescriptive requirements are used when necessary. When products successfully pass all applicable performance tests, a rating is determined and a test report may be issued.

The primary purpose of this Standard/Specification is to enable end-product performance evaluation as may be required for certain US and Canadian model building codes for windows, doors, SSPs, TDDs, roof windows, and unit skylights. Performance-based product comparison, durability assessment, and technical issues related to certification programs are secondary purposes of this Standard/Specification.

This Standard/Specification applies to testing and rating products. The tested rating applies to products of functionally identical construction, with both width and height less than or equal to the tested size.

Programs have been developed or are proposed for determining fenestration energy performance ratings and for fenestration product sustainability. These programs are outside the scope of this Standard/Specification.

Fenestration products excluded from the scope of this Standard/Specification include

interior windows, interior accessory windows (IAWs), and interior doors;

vehicular-access doors (garage doors) (see ANSI/DASMA 105, ANSI/DASMA 108, ANSI/DASMA 109, ANSI/DASMA 115, or other applicable DASMA Specifications);

roof-mounted smoke and heat-relief vents (see FM 4430);

sloped glazing (other than unit skylights or roof windows) (see AAMA TIR-A7);

curtain walls and storefronts (see AAMA CWM and AAMA SFM-1);

commercial entrance systems (see AAMA SFM-1);

sunrooms (see AAMA/NPEA/NSA 2100);

revolving doors;

commercial steel doors rated according to ANSI/SDI A250.8;

skylights according to AAMA SKY-3; and

motorized operators.

1.2 Terminology

In this Standard/Specification, “shall” is used to express a requirement, (i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard/Specification); “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; “shall be permitted to be” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard/Specification; and “can” is used to express possibility or capability.

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and are considered requirements. Legends to equations and figures are considered requirements.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application. The purpose of the commentary is to add background information, explanatory language, examples, or further clarification to topics addressed by the referenced clause.

The Preface, Clause 0, and commentary are non-mandatory.

1.3 Units of measurement

GraphicThere is a commentary available for this Clause.

The values given in SI (metric) units are the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

The values given in parentheses are in IP (inch-pound) units and are often inexact rounded values. Users of this Standard/Specification are to test only to the SI values or to exact conversions of the SI values. The IP equivalents identified are for approximate reference only and do not in any way imply accuracy of the measurement or the equipment.

Precision and bias statements are provided in the applicable test methods referenced in this Standard/Specification. Significant digits and rounding that are recorded below or above the requirements stated in this Standard/Specification do not imply a specific level of accuracy or repeatability of the measurement systems, test equipment or test methods.

1.4 Clause categories

For the convenience of the user, the clauses of this Standard/Specification have been identified with categories that generally describe the content of the clause, allowing users to quickly select those clauses that relate to a particular category. Following are descriptions of each category. Clauses that are not specifically identified relate to all categories.

deformation under static shear loading during exposure to heat or high humidity.

 

1.3

This Standard is not intended for assessment of the effects of chemical treatments of wood on adhesive performance.

 

1.4

In CSA Standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard; and “can” is used to express possibility or capability. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

This document specifies the detailed process and criteria for decision makings when executing an information exchange as specified by the ISO 19650 series to ensure the quality of the resulting project information model or asset information model. It details the implementation of the concepts in ISO 19650-1 and is applicable to any information exchange within the delivery stages covered by ISO 19650-2 and operational trigger events covered by ISO 19650-3.

This document is applicable to assets of all sizes and all levels of complexity. This includes portfolios of buildings, campuses, infrastructure networks, individual buildings and pieces of infrastructure. The requirements in this document should be applied in a way that is appropriate to the scale and complexity of the asset. This document makes use of the phrase “shall consider”. This phrase is used to introduce a list of items that the person in question is required to think about carefully in connection with the primary requirement described in the subclause. The amount of thought involved, the time taken to complete it, and the need for supporting evidence depend on the complexity of the asset, the experience of the person(s) involved, and the requirements of any national policy on introducing building information modelling. On a relatively small or straightforward asset, it can be possible to complete, or dismiss as not relevant, some of these “shall consider” items very quickly. One way to help identify which of the “shall consider” statements are relevant can be to review each statement and create templates for assets of different sizes and complexity

Le présent document spécifie le processus détaillé ainsi que les critères de prise de décision lors de l’exécution d’un échange d’informations tel que spécifié par la série ISO 19650 de façon à garantir la qualité du modèle d’information de projet ou d’actif. Il détaille la mise en œuvre des concepts de l’ISO 19650-1 et s’applique à tout échange d’informations durant les étapes de production traitées dans l’ISO 19650-2 et les phases de déclenchement d’exploitation traitées dans l’ISO 19650-3.

Le présent document s’applique aux actifs de toutes tailles et de tous niveaux de complexité. Cela inclut les ensembles de bâtiments, les campus, les réseaux d’infrastructures, les immeubles individuels et les parties d’infrastructures. Il convient d’appliquer les exigences exposées dans le présent document de manière adaptée à l’échelle et à la complexité de l’actif. Le présent document utilise les termes «doit tenir compte». Cette phrase est utilisée pour introduire une liste d’éléments auxquels la personne en question doit réfléchir soigneusement en liaison avec l’exigence principale décrite dans le paragraphe. La somme de réflexion, le temps à y consacrer et le besoin de pièces justificatives dépendent de la complexité de l’actif, de l’expérience de la ou des personnes impliquées et des exigences d’une éventuelle politique nationale sur l’introduction de la modélisation des informations de la construction. Sur un actif relativement petit ou peu complexe, il est possible de compléter très rapidement certains de ces éléments «doit tenir compte», voire de les écarter comme non pertinents. Pour identifier plus facilement ceux des énoncés «doit tenir compte» qui sont pertinents, il est possible d’examiner chaque énoncé et de créer des modèles pour des actifs de différentes tailles et complexités
