6、anufacturers Association, Inc. Not to be reproduced without specific authorization from BHMA Printed in the USA This Standard was developed by the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association, Inc. It was approved by ANSI under the Canvass Method. BHMA was accredited on 21 March 1983 as a sponsor us

7、ing the Canvass Method. 3 FOREWORD (This Foreword is not a part of ANSI/BHMA A156.22) The general classification of builders hardware includes a wide variety of items which are divided into several categories. To recognize this diversity, a sectional classification system has been established. Door

8、Gasketing Systems is one such sub section and this Standard is a result of the collective efforts of members of the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association, Inc. who manufacture this product. The total Product Standards effort is, therefore, a collection of sections, each covering a specific cat

9、egory of items. Performance tests have been established to ensure safety and stability to which the public is entitled. There are no restrictions on design. This Standard is not intended to obstruct but rather to encourage the development of improved products, methods and materials. The BHMA recogni

10、zes that errors will be found, items will become obsolete, and new products, methods and materials will be developed. With this in mind, the Association plans to update, correct and revise these Standards on a regular basis. It shall also be the responsibility of manufacturers to request such approp

11、riate revisions. The BHMA numbers which indicate functions of gasketing do not identify size or design and are not intended to be used without necessary supplementary information. Individual manufacturers catalogs are to be consulted. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. SCOPE . 5 2. DEFINITIONS . 5 3. GENERAL 6

SCOPE 1.1 This Standard establishes requirements for the performance and installation of gasketing systems including intumescents applied to, or mortised to doors, frames or both. Included are performance tests intended to evaluate resistance to smoke and

14、air infiltration, energy performance, acoustic properties, and the life and durability of gasketing materials. 1.2 Requirements apply to factory or field installed materials. 1.3 Tests described in this Standard are performed under laboratory conditions. In actual usage, results vary because of inst

15、allation, maintenance and environmental conditions. 2. DEFINITIONS 2.1 Applied The gasketing is installed onto a door or frame or both in the field. 2.2 Astragal(s) One or more elements applied to the meeting stile(s) to cover or seal the gap between a pair of doors. 2.3 Automatic Door Bottom A mech

16、anical device to seal the space between the door and the floor or threshold upon closing, for purposes such as reducing air infiltration or sound transmission. Also called a “drop seal”. 2.4 Closer A spring powered device having a controlling means used to close a door. 2.5 Combination Intumescent G

17、asket A product comprised of both intumescent material and other gasketing materials. 2.6 Edge Seal Systems Listed products that may be required by the door manufacturers installation instructions to provide protection to the perimeter and meeting edge of doors and door frames, to prevent the flow o

18、f hot gasses around the assembly in the event of fire. Commonly referred to as Category G listed sealing systems. 2.7 Gasketing Material applied to a door or frame for the purpose of reducing or sealing the clearances around a door, to reduce the passage of air, smoke, sound, light, or water. 2.8 In

19、tegral The gasketing is incorporated in a door or frame or both during the manufacturing process. 2.9 Intumescents A range of materials that expand in volume when exposed to heat or flame. 2.10 Kerf A cut or channel produced by a tool. 2.11 Latch Bolt A lock component having a beveled end which proj

20、ects from the lock front in an extended position but is forced back into the lock case by end pressure or drawn back by action of the lock mechanism. When the door is closed, the latch bolt projects into a hole provided in the strike, and holds the door in a closed position. 2.12 Retainer Part of so

21、me gasketing types providing a means of holding the gasketing material. Is allowed to have flanges to facilitate mounting or serve as a housing for other components.

TEST EQUIPMENT 4.1 Test Door Pro

26、vide a structure to support a standard 18 gauge steel door and a standard 16 gauge steel door frame. The door(s) shall be 36 in x 84 in x 1 3/4 in (914 x 2134 x 44 mm) nominal with an 1/8 in (3.175 mm) per 2 in (50.8 mm) bevel both edges. For testing astragals on pairs of doors, the inactive leaf sh

27、all be held in position, with a gap between the meeting edges of the pair measuring 1/8 in +/- 1/16in (3.175 mm +/- 1.587 mm). Air leakage rates for perimeter and meeting edge seals are permitted to be tested separately, and added together to represent the assembly. Where required by the application

28、 and approved by the test lab, doors of other materials may be substituted provided the setup results in equivalent conditions and meets manufacturers installation specifications. Adjust the frame before installing the door so that it is level, plumb and square within 1/32 in (0.8 mm). The door shal

29、l be hung with three 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 in (114 x 114 mm) Grade 2 full mortise hinges meeting the requirements of ANSI/BHMA A156.1 for Butts and Hinges. Install a function F81 or F82 Grade 1 bored lockset located at 40 in (1016mm) plus or minus 2in. (50.8mm) from the finished floor. The lockset shall mee

30、t the requirements of ANSI/BHMA A156.2 for Bored and Preassembled Locks. The strike plate shall be in accordance with ANSI/BHMA A115 and mounted in the door frame so that when the door is closed and the latch bolt is engaged in the strike plate, a 1/16 in (1.6 mm) space is maintained between the doo

31、r face and the stop on the frame. Check the alignment of the door in the frame and adjust as necessary by shimming the hinges so that the resulting gaps between the door and frame are parallel within 1/32 in (0.8 mm) and that the spacing is as follows, and as illustrated in Figure 1. Take the measur

32、ements from the high side of the bevel. See figure below.
