14、by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Terminology and conventions. The text of the international standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those used in Britis

21、Copy, (c) BSI BS 6181:1981 BSI 01-19991 0 Introduction The establishment of levels of performance for joints in buildings has to be based on tests that will simulate the constraints associated with their behaviour in service. The functions that a joint has to perform have been listed in ISO 3447. Th
22、e method of test proposed deals with point A.8 of 3.1 of ISO 3447. The method has been adapted from a standard test for air permeability of windows. Care should be taken in relating the results of laboratory tests on joints to their actual performance on site. 1 Scope This International Standard spe
23、cifies the test method to be used in laboratories for assessing the air permeability of non-opening joints in the exterior walls of buildings. 2 Field of application This International Standard applies to joint between components used in the exterior walls of buildings and fixed according to the man
24、ufacturers recommendations. This International Standard does not apply to joints within components (for example the joint between glass fixed in a window frame and sealed with a glazing compound), but applies to the joint between glass mounted in a fixed window frame on site.1) 3 References ISO 2444
25、, Joints in building Vocabulary. ISO 3447, Joints in building General check-list of joint functions. 4 Definitions The definitions given in ISO 2444, Joints in building Vocabulary, apply with the following additions: 4.1 differential pressure difference between the absolute air pressure on the exter
26、nal surface of a joint and the absolute air pressure on the internal surface of the same joint. The difference is positive when the external pressure is higher than the internal pressure. In the other case, it is negative. This differential pressure is expressed in pascals (Pa) 4.2 air permeability
27、inability of a joint to resist the passage of air when it is submitted to a differential pressure across it. The air permeability is characterized by a flow of air expressed in cubic metres per hour per metre as a function of the differential pressure NOTEThis flow may be related to joint length (fl
28、ow per unit of length in cubic metres per hour per metre), or, for a junction2) between two joints, to the flow at the junction (flow in cubic metres per hour). Where the distribution of joints (length and junction) in an element is known, the flow may also be related to the element surface area (fl
29、ow per unit of surface in cubic metres per hour per square metre). 5 Apparatus The basic test apparatus shall consist of the following: 5.1 Chamber which can be sealed and pressurized with an opening in one side into which a length of joint at least 1 m long and associated components can be fitted.
30、5.2 Means of providing a controlled differential pressure across the joint. 5.3 Device for rapid controlled changes of the differential pressure operating between defined limits. 5.4 Means of measuring the flow of air into or out of the chamber. 5.5 Means of measuring the differential pressure betwe
31、en the two faces of the joint, i.e. between the joint surfaces at any part of the wall or of the partition to be tested. 6 Preparation of the joint for testing The joint to be tested shall be installed between actual components so as to withstand the test differential pressures without deflecting to
32、 an extent likely to impair the joint or affect its performance. The components surrounding the joint shall be chosen to represent the nature of the surface likely to occur in practice. Any irregularities on that part of the component surface in contact with any jointing product shall be tested for
33、their effect on air permeability. The joint shall be installed so that its external surface forms a part of the internal face of one wall of the chamber for a positive differential pressure and vice versa for a negative differential pressure (see 8.3). 1) See also ISO 6613, Windows and door height w

35、mputable to the joint, shall be measured and preferably eliminated. When the extraneous chamber air leakage is measured, it shall be determined with the joint specimen sealed and at the differential pressures to be exerted during the joint air permeability tests. (Care must be taken to ensure that t
36、he joint is well sealed over its face and at its ends.) The metering equipment for the measurement of the air permeability of the joint may be used for measuring the extraneous air leakage or it may be necessary to provide additional air metering equipment. The method adopted to measure the air leak
37、age shall be stated in the test report. The air temperature of the laboratory and the test chamber shall be measured and recorded in the report. 8 Test 8.1 Tests for the following four conditions of installation shall be made to determine the effects of dimensional deviations: a) Nominal joint width
38、 with the external surfaces of the adjacent components forming the joint correctly aligned. b) Minimum specified joint width with the external surfaces of the adjacent components forming the joint correctly aligned. c) Maximum specified joint width with the external surfaces of the adjacent componen
39、ts forming the joint correctly aligned. d) Joint width varying from minimum to maximum width along length, and with adjacent components forming the joint misaligned in the opposite direction to the plane of the component surfaces (in the direction perpendicular to the faces of the components) within
40、 the given limits. Junctions between joints shall also be tested under the conditions a) to d) above. To test a junction, for example, between a vertical joint and a horizontal joint, first test the junction formed between lengths of the two types of joint and then test separate lengths of the two t
41、ypes. The effect of the junction itself is then calculated by subtracting the air flows through the two separate joints (correcting for length as appropriate) from the air flow through the complete assembly. 8.2 Three positive differential pressure pulses increasing from 0 to maximum over a period g
42、reater than 1 s shall be applied to the test chamber. Each pressure shall be maintained for at least 3 s. These pressures shall be 10 % higher than the maximum differential pressure Pmax required for the following part of the test (see 8.3) without however being less than 500 Pa (see Figure). 8.3 Th
43、e joint shall then be subjected to increasing positive differential pressures in stages of at least 10 s duration up to the maximum differential pressure required for the test. This maximum differential pressure is to be calculated from the velocity of the wind acting on the joint in its intended lo
44、cation in use. These differential pressures shall be 50, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 Pa and can then be increased gradually in steps of 250 Pa maximum if the differential pressure required for the test is, exceptionally, higher than 600 Pa. The differential pressures shall then be applied
45、in the reverse order. The Figure shows the sequence of operations for a required differential pressure Pmax less than 600 Pa, for example of 300 Pa, see part a) of the Figure and for a required differential pressure of Pmax greater than 600 Pa, for example of 700 Pa, see part b) of the Figure. 8.4 T
46、he test shall be repeated with negative differential pressures by reversing the installation of the joint so that its interior surface forms a part of the internal face of one wall of the chamber. 9 Test results The air permeability at each differential pressure shall be recorded to the nearest 0,1
47、m3/h. The higher of the two flow readings for each pressure (measured once during the increasing phase and then during the decreasing phase) shall be noted in the report. In addition, the accuracy to be expected from the measuring instruments used shall be indicated in the report. For each joint tes
48、ted, the air permeability expressed as cubic metres of air per hour shall be recorded: a) per metre of length of each type of joint; b) for each junction location (intersection of joints). In addition, if the distribution of joints (length and junctions) for an element is known, the flow per unit of
49、 surface of the element can be given. The air permeability shall be plotted against increasing differential pressure and the graphs shall be included in the report. If necessary, corrections shall be made for any extraneous air leakage from the chamber (see clause 7).
