This test method describes the determination of the structural performance of exterior windows, doors, skylights, and curtain walls under uniform static air pressure differences, using a test chamber. This test method is applicable to curtain wall assemblies including, but not limited to, metal, glass, masonry, and stone components.
This test method is intended only for evaluating the structural performance associated with the specified test specimen and not the structural performance of adjacent construction.
The proper use of this test method requires a knowledge of the principles of pressure and deflection measurement.
This test method describes the apparatus and the procedure to be used for applying uniformly distributed test loads to a specimen.
