The document provides detailed specifications for various window and door configurations, including dimensions, performance ratings, and material standards. Key configurations include 1-leaf tilt/turn windows, balcony doors with side lights, and top-hung assemblies. Each configuration is associated with specific performance codes and thermal loss values (Uw), solar factors (Sw), and light transmission (TLw).
Acoustic Performance:
The acoustic performance section details the sound insulation capabilities of different window configurations. It includes measurements of sound reduction indices (Rw) and acoustic ratings (RA) for both visible and minimal opening frames. The document specifies the glazing configurations and their corresponding acoustic performance.
Thermal Performance:
Thermal performance is analyzed for various configurations, including Soleal Visible and Soleal Minimal frames. The document provides Uw values for different glazing thicknesses and Ug values, highlighting the impact on thermal insulation.
