13、609:2004 (E) 3 Foreword This document (EN 14609:2004) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors, windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by pu
14、blication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2004, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2004. It is part of a series of standards for windows. This document supersedes 8.2.1 Warping of EN 107:1980. Annex A is normative. Accord
15、ing to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuani
16、a, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. EN 14609:2004 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the determination of resistance to static torsion of an open casement, expressed as loads and the resulting
17、 maximum and residual deformations. This European Standard applies to the opening modes specified in Figures A.1 to A.5 and included in EN 12519. This European Standard is not applicable to the sashes of sliding windows. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated
18、reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when inco
19、rporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). EN 12519, Windows and pedestrian doors Terminology. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions given in
20、 EN 12519 apply, together with the following: 3.1 static torsion twist induced in a casement by the application of a static load to an extreme free corner edge of that casement and normal to its plane when an adjacent corner edge is secured 4 Apparatus A surrounding substantial steel frame with mova
21、ble steel supports 1 )into which the sub-frames containing test specimens of various dimensions can be mounted. Means for the application of forces with an accuracy of 5 % uniformly and without shock. An analogue or digital measuring instrument for determining measurements with an accuracy of 0,1 mm
22、. 5 Test specimen The test specimen shall be supplied in a fully operable condition. It shall be suitable for fixing into the surround frame in accordance with the manufacturers published recommendations or standardized instructions. 1) A suitable frame would, for example, be of such stiffness that
23、the mid span deflection of any member of the frame does not exceed 1/500 of its unsupported length under the action of a force of 1 kN applied at any point or direction perpendicular to the length of that member. EN 14609:2004 (E) 5 6 Conditioning and preparation of the test specimen 6.1 Conditionin
24、g Storage and testing shall be carried out in a non-destructive environment within the ranges of 10 C to 30 C and 25 % to 75 % relative humidity. 6.2 Preparation Remove all transport blocks, bracings, packaging and protective wrappings from the test specimen. The test specimen shall be mounted level
25、, square and without visible twist resulting from the use of fixing devices. 7 Procedure When carrying out the test (see Figure A.6) the following shall be taken into account. Having disengaged any restricting devices, open and close the test specimen five times before the test to its maximum extent
26、 or 90, whichever is greater. For windows with more than a single leaf the first test shall be to the main leaf. When testing multi-function windows such as those that tilt and turn, each function shall be tested separately. The most common usage shall be tested first (e. g. tilt before turn). To ta
27、ke up any slack in hinges or pivots, if fitted, apply a pre-load of 10 % of the maximum test load or a minimum of 20 N according to Figures A.1 to A.5. Remove the pre-load and measure the deformation (a 0 ). Apply the static test load F according to Figures A.1 to A.5 and measure the deformation (a
28、1 ) under the test load. Remove the test load and measure the deformation (a 2 ). Apply and remove all loads continuously to avoid dynamic effects. Apply the loads in increments of a maximum of 100 N and over a minimum of 1 s for each increment. 8 Expression of results Note the loads, together with
29、the maximum (a 1 a 0 ) and residual (a 2 a 0 ) deformations measured during the test. Express loads in Newtons (N) to three significant figures and deformations in millimetres (mm) to two significant figures. 9 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: a) referenc
30、e to this European Standard; b) name of the test laboratory; c) name of the manufacturer and applicant; d) date of test and test report; e) all relevant details for identifying the test specimen and apparatus the type; the specified dimensions; the materials; form and mode of opening; f) test result
31、s; g) permanent damage to the test specimen.
