Testing to Australian Standards
Research and Development plays a pivotal role in our product design and provide a windows and door testing laboratory to conduct test required for AS 2047:2014 Windows and external glazed doors in buildings and NZS 4211:2008 Specification for performance of windows Using test methods detailed in AS/NZS 4420.1:2016
Windows, external glazed, timer and composite doors – Methods of test Part 1: Test Sequence, sampling and test methods. This Standard sets out methods of test for determining the following performance aspects of windows, external glazed, timber and composite doors designed for installation in all classes of buildings:
AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 2 – Test sequence, sampling, and test methods.
AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 3 – Deflection Test, positive and negative wind pressures are applied to the face of the window to test the maximum deflection under wind load. AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 4 – Operating Force Test, to verify that an opening sash is capable of opening and closing without undue effort.
AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 5 – Air In filtration Test, the air leakage of a window is tested to ensure energy and acoustic efficiency. AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 6 – Water Penetration Resistance Test, to verify that no water leaks through the window into the building.
AS/NZS 4420.1:2016 Clause 7 – Ultimate Strength Test – negative and positive wind pressures are applied to the window to at least 1.5 times the design wind pressure to ensure it does not fail in unusual wind conditions.
NZS 4211:2008 Appendix A – Torsional Strength of Sash Test – Projecting sashes are tested
with a torsional load to provide an indication of the likely smoothness of operation from this Wintec Systems can stay at the forefront of the industry and continue to produce high quality aluminium window and door systems.
