16、 in 2.1 and 2.2 and Footnotes 4and 5.NOTE 1In applying the results of tests by this test method, it shouldbe borne in mind that the performance of a cladding system may be afunction of fabrication, installation, and adjustment, and that the specimenmay or may not truly represent the actual structure

17、. In service, theperformance will also depend on the rigidity of supporting constructionand on the resistance of components to deterioration by various causes, tovibration, to thermal expansion and contraction, etc.6. Apparatus6.1 The description of apparatus is general in nature; anyequipment capab

18、le of performing the test procedure within theallowable tolerances is permitted.6.2 Major Components (see Fig. 1):6.2.1 Test ChamberA test chamber or box with an open-ing, a removable mounting panel, or one open side in which, oragainst which, the specimen is installed. Care should be takenwhen desi

19、gning the chamber-to-specimen seal, to avoid edgeconditions not representative of the cladding system beingtested. At least one static pressure tap shall be provided tomeasure the chamber pressure and shall be so located that thereading is unaffected by the velocity of the air supply to orfrom the c

20、hamber, or any other air movement. The air supplyopening into the chamber shall be arranged so that the air doesnot impinge directly on the test specimen. A means of accessinto the chamber may be provided to facilitate adjustments andobservations after the specimen has been installed.NOTE 2The test

21、chamber and the specimen mounting frame must notdeflect under the test load in such a manner that the performance of thespecimen will be affected.6.2.2 Air SystemA controllable blower, a compressed-airsupply, an exhaust system, or reversible controllable blowerdesigned to provide the required maximu

22、m air-pressure differ-ence across the specimen. The system shall provide an essen-tially constant air-pressure difference for the required testperiod.NOTE 3It is convenient to use a reversible blower or a separatepressure and exhaust system to provide the required air-pressure differ-ence so that th

23、e test specimen can be tested for the effect of positivepressure and for the effect of negative pressure without removing,reversing, and reinstalling the test specimen. If an adequate air supply isavailable, a completely airtight seal need not be provided around theperimeter of the test specimen and

24、 the mounting panel, although it ispreferable. However, substantial air leakage will require an air supply ofmuch greater capacity to maintain the required pressure differences.6.2.3 Pressure-Measuring ApparatusA device to measurethe test pressure difference within an accuracy of 62%.6.2.4 Deflectio

25、n-Measuring SystemA means of measuringdeflections with an accuracy of 60.001 in. 60.02 mm.6.2.4.1 Stone deflections shall be measured perpendicular tothe stone surface at anchorage locations and at the position ofmaximum displacement. Additional locations for deflectionmeasurements, if required, sha

26、ll be stated by the specifier.6.2.4.2 Deflection gauges shall be supported independentlyof the cladding system being tested.6.2.4.3 For tests to determine the ultimate performance of aspecimen, deflection-measuring devices with lesser precisionmay be used due to possible destruction of the instrumen

27、ts.7. Hazards7.1 Take proper precautions to protect the observers in theevent of any failure. At the pressures used in this test method,considerable energy and hazard are involved. In cases offailure, the hazard to personnel is less with an exhaust system,as the specimen will tend to blow into the t

28、est chamber ratherthan out. Do not permit personnel in such chambers duringtests.8. Test Specimens8.1 Test specimens shall be of sufficient size and extent todetermine the performance of all typical components of thecladding system.8.1.1 All parts of the test specimen shall be full size, usingthe sa

29、me materials, material finishes, details, and methods ofconstruction, and anchorage as used, or planned to be used, onthe building.8.1.2 Accurately simulate conditions of structural supportback to a reasonably unyielding support.8.2 Test a minimum of five specimens.NOTE 4It should be recognized that

30、 performance is likely to be afunction of size and geometry. Therefore, one should select specimenscovering the range of sizes and thicknesses to be used on a building. Ingeneral, the largest size or most heavily loaded of a particular design, type,thickness, construction, or configuration to be use

31、d should be tested.9. Calibration9.1 Calibration of fluid manometers and dial gauge deflec-tion measuring devices is normally not required, provided theinstruments are used at or near their design temperature.Appropriately calibrate other types of pressure and deflectionmeasuring devices.10.
