1、Designation: E 2136 04An American National StandardStandard Guide forSpecifying and Evaluating Performance of Single FamilyAttached and Detached DwellingsDurability1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 2136; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforigi
2、nal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis standard guide is part of a set which together presents a
3、complete performance standard guidefor specifying and evaluating single family attached and detached dwellings. The complete set in theseries, when finished, is to include the attributes given in Fig. 1.The series provides a framework for specifying and evaluating qualities of building products ands
4、ystems to meet user needs without limiting ways and means. The format for this standard guideincludes performance statements that consist of four components, Objectives-Criteria-Evaluation-Commentary (O-C-E-C), which together provide a systematic performance based approach for theintended purpose. T
5、hese performance statements are presented in Section 8 against a Hierarchy ofBuilding Elements as tabulated in Fig. 2.The purpose of these standard guides is to provide a standardized methodology for describingperformance parameters of single-family attached or detached dwellings. This methodology s
6、tandard-izes the descriptions of performance of a single-family dwelling, attached or detached, that can beexpressed as performance statements (O-C-E-C) for a particular attribute, degradation factor, and userneed.These standard guides are intended for use by those who need to prescribe required lev
7、els ofperformance and those who need to rate a product which forms a single-family dwelling or partthereof. The standard guides include examples of performance statements that may be used for thespecification and evaluation of design, materials, products, components, subsystems, and systems.1. Scope
8、1.1 This guide gives examples of performance statementsfor durable in-place materials, products, components, sub-systems, and systems for single family attached and detacheddwellings, considering the effects of normal degradation fac-tors to which they are anticipated to be subjected over theirservi
9、ce lives. Table 1 provides a listing of the sections of thisGuide that address durability including the performance state-ments.1.2 Damage from extreme acts of nature, vandalism, orintentional destructive acts by dwelling inhabitants are notconsidered as normal degradation factors affecting durabili
10、ty inthis guide.NOTE 1Performance statements regarding the performance of singlefamily attached and detached dwellings under extreme acts of nature areaddressed in the Guide on Structural Safety and Serviceability.1.3 This document also addresses site planning in so far asit affects the durability o

Significance and Use4.1 This standard guide and the use of consensus perfor-mance standards for housing can significantly contribute to theremoval of barriers to the acce
41、ptance of housing innovation inthe global marketplace. This standard guide in conjunctionwith the balance of the set of standard guides, when complete,can also serve to improve communications between producersand consumers leading to enhanced quality and performance ofhousing.4.2 This standard guide
42、 is not intended for use in specifyingand evaluating residential construction other than single familyattached and detached dwellings. Nevertheless, some perfor-mance statements may have application to assessing thedurability of building materials, components, and systems usedin other constructions.
43、4.3 Although this standard guide addresses site planning asit affects the durability of single family attached and detacheddwellings, the site-planning issues considered are not to beconstrued as a comprehensive site specification.4.4 This standard guide can be useful to managers ofhousing procureme
44、nt projects, home builders, designers, prod-uct manufacturers, and evaluation services in addressing dura-bility issues related to single family attached and detacheddwellings. Such applications can require that the performancestatement examples be written in mandatory language.4.5 The performance s
45、tatement examples given in thisstandard guide are intended to complement the durabilityrequirements implied in prescriptive provisions of codes suchas the International Residential Code for One- and Two-FamilyDwellings (IRC).4.6 Limitations on Performance Prediction:4.6.1 The traditional approach to
46、 evaluating the durability inbuilding materials, components, and systems has been relatedto specific materials, and their reaction over time to specificdegradation factors. This is useful for establishing standardsfor the quality control and use of specific materials. However,it is not much help in
47、making comparisons across a variety oftraditional materials intended for the same use, in evaluatingsystems comprised of a number of specific materials (forexample, walls), or in developing performance specificationsand performance standards needed for innovative materials.Little research has consid
48、ered the generic analysis of degrada-tion factors acting upon building elements in residentialapplication. Moreover, insufficient work has been done in thedevelopment of accelerated weathering tests in which thedegradation processes simulate those occurring in practice.Also, much more material scien
49、ce studies of degradationmechanisms and rates are needed to form a strong foundationfor performance prediction of building materials. For thesereasons, the performance statements in this guide are examplesand initial steps of an evolving process in developing perfor-mance standards for single family attached and detacheddwellings. It is anticipated that, as this guide is applied tohousing procurement projects and as more research into thesubject of durability is carried out, the performance statementexamples in this guide will change.
