4、ended for optimal use andapplication of this practice.1. Scope1.1 This practice is intended to serve as a concise, authori-tative, and technically sound practice for Building EnclosureCommissioning (BECx) that establishes two levels of BECx:Fundamental and Enhanced (refer also to Section 4).1.2 The
5、BECx process as defined in this practice includesthe following phases and sub-phases:1.2.1 Pre-design,1.2.2 Design,1.2.2.1 Schematic Design,1.2.2.2 Design Development,1.2.2.3 Construction Documentation,1.2.3 Pre-Construction,21.2.4 Construction, and1.2.5 Occupancy and Operations.1.3 This practice in
6、cludes a mandatory OPR DevelopmentGuideline (AnnexA1) and requires the development of an OPRfor both Fundamental and Enhanced BECx that addresses, at aminimum, the performance attributes and metrics included inAnnex A1 of this practice.1.4 This practice includes mandatory BECx PerformanceTesting Req
7、uirements (Annex A2) approved for use with thispractice to evaluate the performance and durability of enclo-sure materials, components, systems, and assemblies.1.5 This practice mandates independent, third-party designpeer review during the Design Phase of both Fundamental andEnhanced BECx.1.6 This
8、practice recognizes that the OPR for exteriorenclosure performance and environmental separation mayexceed the baseline requirements of applicable building codesand standards and provides guidance for the development of anOPR based on the following attributes as defined in Annex A1of this practice:1.
9、6.1 Energy,1.6.2 Environment,1.6.3 Safety,1.6.4 Security,1.6.5 Durability,1.6.6 Sustainability, and1.6.7 Operation.1.7 The terms “building enclosure” and “enclosure” as theyappear in this practice refer collectively to all materials,components, systems, and assemblies intended to provideshelter and
10、environmental separation between interior andexterior, or between two or more environmentally distinctinterior spaces in a building or structure.1.8 This practice establishes that the Building EnclosureCommissioning “Agent” or “Authority” (BECxA) refers spe-cifically to the individual or firm retain
11、ed by the Owner todevelop, manage, and be in responsible charge of the BECxprocess, including individual members and technical special-ists that may comprise the BECx team (see 4.2).1.9 The role and responsibilities of the BECxA as definedby this practice are not intended to supersede or otherwisere
12、place the contractual obligations reserved specifically for theparties responsible for the design and construction of a buildingor structure, nor the duties that may otherwise be assigned tothose parties by applicable regulatory or statutory law.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Commi
