21、n structures Part 24: Actions on structures Wind actions. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this standard, the definitions given in prEN 13119:1997, together with the following, apply. 3.1 test pressure differential pressure between the two faces of the test specimen, expressed in Pascal (Pa) 3.2 po
22、sitive pressure when outer face is subjected to higher pressure than inner face 3.3 negative pressure when inner face is subjected to higher pressure than outer face 3.4 design wind load load calculated following the procedure specified within ENV 199124 and represented in this test with positive an
23、d negative test pressures on the test specimen 3.5 increased load (safety load) 1,5 times design wind load expressed in PascalPage 5 EN 12179:2000 BSI 082000 3.6 residual deformation change in shape or dimension which does not disappear when the test pressure is removed 3.7 frontal displacement move
24、ment of a point on a member measured normal to the member3.8 frontal deflection maximum frontal displacement of a member, minus half the sum of the frontal displacement at each end of the member 4 Principle Application of a sequence of test pressures (positive and negative) with displacements measur
25、ed at each pressure. 5 Apparatus The test apparatus shall include the following. 5.1 A chamber with an opening into which the test specimen can be fitted. This chamber shall be of sufficient strength and rigidity to withstand the test pressures likely to be imposed during the tests. It shall not def
26、lect under test pressure to any extent which would affect the performance of the test specimen (Figure 1). Adequate representative structural supports shall be provided to which the specimen shall be attached in accordance with the conditions of use in the works (see also clause 6). The chamber shal
27、l be so constructed that the air permeability through it, at pressures up to the maximum air permeability test pressures, does not exceed the permissible air permeability through the specimen, at the same pressures. 5.2 A means for applying controlled positive and negative test pressures to the test
28、 specimen. 5.3 A means by which rapidly controlled changes of positive and negative test pressures may be produced within defined limits. 5.4 A means of measuring the applied positive and negative test pressures, steady or fluctuating, within an accuracy of 5 %. 5.5 Devices for measuring displacemen
29、ts to an accuracy of at least 0,1mm. 5.6 A means of positioning the devices for measuring frontal displacements of specimen members. 5.7 A means of recording the displacements throughout the duration of the test.Page 6 EN 12179:2000 BSI 082000 6 Test specimen The specimen shall be submitted in a ful
30、ly operable condition, ready for use. It shall be supplied in a suitable manner for fixing onto a test chamber. The test specimen shall not be less than two typical units wide and shall be sufficient to provide full loading on at least one typical vertical joint or framing member or both. The specim
31、en shall not obtain additional stiffness from the test chamber. The height shall not be less than the full distance between the curtain walls point of connection to the building structure. For custom designed curtain walls or special elements, the specimen shall be a size which is adequate to demons
32、trate its compliance with the specified requirements. All parts of the specimen shall be full size, using the same materials, details, methods of construction and fixing as intended for use in the works. Conditions for connection to the structural support shall simulate those in the works as accurat
33、ely as possible (see also 5.1). This standard does not apply to the perimeter joints between the curtain walling and the test chamber, or to the joints between the curtain walling and the building construction. 7 Test preparation Install devices for measuring the maximum frontal displacements of app
34、ropriate curtain walling members so that performance can be assessed in accordance with prEN 13116:1997. Identify each displacement measuring device and its location on a suitable drawing of the test specimen. No further preparations are necessary other than those already carried out for the preceed
35、ing air permeability and watertightness tests. 8 Test procedure Where openable parts exist in a curtain wall test specimen, then open, close and lock each openable part of the test unit five times prior to testing. Test the resistance to wind load with positive test pressure, followed by the test wi
36、th negative test pressure. 8.1 Positive pressure test Apply three pulses of air pressure at 50 % of design wind load or 500 Pa, whichever is greater. The short period for pressure increase shall be not less than 1 s. Sustain each pulse for at least 3 s. Reset all measuring devices to zero or to thei
37、r initial readings and record these. Note any changes in the condition of the specimen. Subject the curtain wall unit to the test pressures in 4 stages, for a minimum period of 15 s 5 s at each stage up to design wind load, i.e. 25 %, 50 %, 75 % and 100 % of design wind load.Page 7 EN 12179:2000 BSI
38、 082000 Measure the frontal displacements at each test pressure and determine frontal deflections as required in prEN 13116:1997. Record residual deformations no later than 1 hour after completion of the test. 8.2 Negative pressure test Apply the same procedure as specified in 8.1 with negative test
39、 pressures. 8.3 Increased load test (optional) Positive pressure test - When required, apply a positive test pressure of 150 % of the design wind load as specified in prEN 13116:1997 for a minimum period of 15 s 5 s. Note any changes in the condition of the specimen. Open and close all openable wind
40、ows 5 times, finally securing them in the closed position. 9 Results 9.1 List the measurements of frontal displacements for each test pressure, calculate the frontal deflections and express them graphically as functions of test pressure. Record the residual deformations. Note any damage on an elevat
41、ion drawing of the specimen. Compare the frontal deflections and any residual deformations with the maximum permissable values specified in prEN 13116:1997 and assess as passed or failed. 9.2 List the results for the increased load tests in an annex to the report, including any damage conditions. 10
