Annex A (informative) Design principles
Annex B (informative) Survey of general design criteria where
tests are not necessary
Defines test procedures to evaluate; the risks of decay to windows made of different materials, through increased moisture accumulation from condensation or water vapour diffusion; and the influence of deformation on basic performances of windows made of different materials exposed to different climates between their internal and external faces. Relates only to initial type testing, i.e. developments or changes in designs. Does not relate to routine quality control or to proven designs.
