The test extrusionspretreatment, finish, and coating shall be identified and con-sistent with the manufacturers application technique andproduction inventory. In cases in w

22、hich a complete windowwould use different profiles for sills, jamb, head, orintermediates, a jamb extrusion may be considered represen-tative of the other members provided the thermal barrier cavitypocket design, pretreatment, finish type, and manufacturingmethod are the same. When the window system

24、h individual specimen shall be a minimum of700 mm in length. The width and thickness will vary.8.3 A minimum of three specimens at 700 mm in lengthshall be submitted for testing.9. Conditioning9.1 The test specimens shall be cut from a prepared stocklength not less than 2.5 m in length. The stock le

25、ngth materialshall be conditioned a minimum of seven days at roomtemperature prior to cutting the three 700 mm specimensrequired for further testing.10. Procedure10.1 Precycle Shear Strength DeterminationBefore ther-mal cycle testing, cut a 100 6 3 mm section off the lead end ofeach specimen (see Fi

26、g. 3). Place the specimens one at a timein the test fixture (see Fig. 2) and load to failure at a crossheadspeed of 5 mm/min at room temperature. Record the peak loadvalues and failure mode. Failure of the specimen shall bedefined as the maximum load at failure of the sample or themaximum load up to

27、 a relative axial displacement of the metalfaces of 3 mm measured at one of the metal/thermal barrierinterfaces, whichever comes first. Report the mode of failure, ifany was present, at the end of the testing. Failure modeexamples are, metal failure, cohesive failure, and adhesivefailure.NOTE 1For t

28、he purposes of this test procedure, room temperature isdefined as 22 6 3 C.10.2 Cyclic Soak Thermal TestPlace the test specimens,600 6 3 mm long, in an environmental chamber. Conditionedair shall be cycled over the specimens at temperatures between29 and 60 C for 90 cycles in accordance with Fig. 3.

Upon thecompletion of 60 thermal cycles, observe each end of eachspecimen and measure any thermal barrier movement relativeto the metal extrusion as done earlier. Return the specimens tothe environmental chamber and continue testing. Upon thecompletion of 90

Failure modeexamples are metal failure, cohesive failure and adhesivefailure.11. Report11.1 Report the complete des
