An Analytical Alternative to Commercial Window Testing

April 2, 2021 The most obvious way to verify compliance of fenestration products with code requirements for structural strength under wind pressure loading, often based on commercial-grade requirements of the North American Fenestration Standard, is laboratory testing. However, when a specific project calls for non-standard configurations such as larger or smaller sizes, variations in framing configuration or higher wind pressure levels than those of the tested baseline assembly, it can be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to test all such variations. Accordingly, the Fenestration & Glazing Industry Alliance offers a standardized process for engineering evaluation of windows and doors, in the form of AAMA 2502-19, Comparative Analysis Procedure for Window and Door Products, an FGIA standard. Approved as a reference standard in the International Building Code, AAMA 2502 sets forth engineering design rules by which commercial products that differ from the test unit can be q

Insights were gathered from a survey sent to the glass industry, as well as an interview with Randal Froebelius from the BEC Presents episode series from the National Glass Association; the webinar “Future Trends of Glassmaking,” hosted by Glass International, with guest presenter Özlem Vergon; and the presentation, “Inspired Design Trends for Commercial and Residential Construction,” hosted by the Fenestration & Glazing Industry Alliance as part of its 2021 Virtual Annual Conference, with guest John Peterson. Design and construction have been disrupted during the pandemic, and COVID-19 will almost certainly continue to shape the built environment post-vaccination. “COVID-19 will definitely affect how commercial space is designed and utilized,” says Ian Patlin, president, Paragon Architectural Products. “Planning will be majorly affected to accommodate the new health and social norms, and to provide a greater sense of surety, security and social responsibility.”
