3.7 weatherseal
resilient material designed to reduce air infiltration and water penetration
NOTE This is sometimes called a weatherstrip.
4 Handing
The handing shall be in accordance with the specification provided.
Where the manufacturer is specifying the handing, the specification shall conform to Annex A.
NOTE Where the manufacturer is not specifying the handing, care should be taken to check the handing designation to avoid confusion with the conventions of 85 EN 12519. See the Note to 4.1.
5 Materials
5.1 Steel
Frame profiles shall be:
a) hot-rolled from mild steel conforming to BS EN 10025-2; or b) cold-formed from mild steel conforming to BS EN 10111; or C) cold•formed froni zinccoated steel strip conforming to
BS EN 10346:2009, designation Z200 or Z275.
After rolling or forming the frame profiles shall be cold-straightened.
5.2 Hardware
Metallic materials used for hardware shall have at least the equivalent corrosion resistance to BS EN 1670:2007, grade 3 (96 h) when subjected to a neutral salt spray test as specified in BS EN ISO 9227. Tests shall be carried out on complete hardware items as supplied.
NOTE 1 For erw.ronments in very polluted localities such as those subject to combinations of industrial and coastal pollution. 85 EN 1670:2007, grade 4 (240 h) should be used.
NOTE 2 Requirements and test methods for window and door hardware are specified in 85 EN 13126.
NOTE 3 Changes to hardware such as hinges, pivots, handles, stays, bolts or catches can have an effect on the performance of the window.
5.3 Weatherseals and glazing gaskets
Weatherseals and glazing gaskets shall meet the requirements of BSEN 12365-1.
NOTE Guidance on the application of BS EN 12365-1 to the selection of appropriate materials is provided in 008455.
5.4 Fixings
Appropriate fixings shall be supplied.
The fixings shall be adequate to ensure that after installation in the building the windows and doors are judged capable of maintaining their specified performance with respect to security s.afet weathertightness, operation and strength.
NOTE The fixings recommended in Annex Bare deemed to meet th,s requirement. Other fixings may be used if they can be shown to give similar results.
5.5 Glazing materials
The glazing type and thickness of all glass shall be selected, using the recommendations given in BS 6262-1, 856262-2, BS 6262-3, BS 6262-4 and/or 856262-7. as appropriate, or glass manufacturers’ published data, to withstand a design wind pressure of 1 200 Pa unless otherwise specified. When the window or door supplier is responsible for specifying the design wind pressure, it shall be calculated in accordance with 8S 6375-1.
When the window or door supplier is responsible for supplying the glass, it shall conform to the following standards as appropriate:
a) 85 EN 572 for basic glass products;
b) BS EN 12150 for thermally toughened glass;
c) BS EN 1863 for heat-strengthened glass;
d) 85 EN 12337 for chemkally strengthened glass;
e) BS EN 14449 and 85 EN ISO 12543 for laminated glass.
Insulating glass units shall conform to 85 EN 1279.
Where safety glass is fined, it shall have an appropriate impact resistance determined in accordance with BS 6206 orBS EN 12600 and shall be fitted in accordance with the recon,mendat*ons given in BS 6262-4.
NOTE Attention is drawn to the Building Regulations 2010 111. and to the corresponding Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004121 and Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 20(10131, in respect of glazing safety
6 Fabrication
6.1 Work sizes and manufacturing tolerances
The work sizes for overall length and height shall be documented.
The size of an assembled frame shall be within ±2 mm of the documented work size. The difference between the diagonals of rectangular frames shall be not more than 4 mm.
NOTE Recommended maximum sizes are given in the Steel Window Association’s Specifier’s guide.
6.2 Frame joints
welded frame joints shall have significant surfaces dressed squareand flat.
NOTE 1 Significant surfaces are those visible after installation whenwindows and doors are closed and viewed from a distance of 1 m, unlessspecified otherwise by the purchaser.
