2、 the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis guide is part of a set which together pres
3、ents a complete performance standard guide forspecifying 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 produc
4、ts andsystems to meet user needs without limiting ways and means. The format for this guide includesperformance statements that consist of four components, Objectives-Criteria-Evaluation-Commentary(O-C-E-C), which together provide a systematic performance based approach for the intendedpurpose. Thes
5、e performance statements are presented in Section 8 against a Hierarchy of BuildingElements 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 stan
6、dard-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 levels
7、 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. Scope1.1
8、 This guide gives examples of performance statementsfor durable in-place materials, products, components,subsystems, and systems for single family attached and de-tached dwellings, considering the effects of normal degradationfactors to which they are anticipated to be subjected over theirservice li

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 durability in

Significance and Use4.1 This guide and the use of consensus performancestandards for housing can significantly contribute to the re-moval of barriers to the acceptance of housing innova
41、tion inthe global marketplace. This guide in conjunction with thebalance of the set of standard guides, when complete, can alsoserve to improve communications between producers andconsumers leading to enhanced quality and performance ofhousing.4.2 This guide is not intended for use in specifying and
42、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.4.3 Although this guide addresses site pla
43、nning as it affectsthe durability of single family attached and detached dwellings,the site-planning issues considered are not to be construed as acomprehensive site specification.4.4 This guide can be useful to managers of housingprocurement projects, home builders, designers, productmanufacturers,
44、 and evaluation services in addressing durabilityissues related to single family attached and detached dwellings.Such applications can require that the performance statementexamples be written in mandatory language.4.5 The performance statement examples given in this guideare intended to complement
45、the durability requirements im-plied in prescriptive provisions of codes such as the Interna-tional Residential Code for One- and Two-Family Dwellings(IRC).4.6 Limitations on Performance Prediction:4.6.1 The traditional approach to evaluating the durability inbuilding materials, components, and syst
46、ems 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 making comparisons across a variety oftraditional materials intended
47、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 considered the generic analysis of degrada-tion factors acting upon buildin
48、g 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 science studies of degradationmechanisms and rates are needed to form a st
49、rong foundationfor performance prediction of building materials.
