For direct weatheringcomparisons, all material(s)
34、should undergo exposure condi-tions and property measurements testing at the same time.3.4 The test methods listed include those considered criticalto the performance of aircraft transparent enclosures. Other testmethods to evaluate materials may also be performed. Addi-tional test methods are in pr
35、eparation and will be incorporated.The user is advised to employ the latest revision of any testmethod.3.5 The dominant component of all transparent enclosures isone, or more, rigid transparent sheet(s). The sheet(s) mustpermit the necessary visibility while providing structural in-tegrity and prote
36、cting the aircraft interior from external envi-ronments as required by the specific aircraft design.3.6 In its most simple form, the rigid transparent sheet maybe the only component of a transparent enclosure.3.7 When more than one rigid transparent sheet isemployed, the sheets are laminated with a
37、controlled thicknesswith either an air gap or with a transparent adhesive known asan interlayer.3.8 Transparent enclosure designs may use multiple rigidtransparent sheets to take advantage of specific properties ofdifferent materials. In this instance, there will be functionsrequired of one of the s
