Content Description

Window Design, Testing, Ratings, and Specification, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: AL-EN-193301-1224

Alside Windows provide natural light and ventilation and add character to the interior and exterior of the home. In addition to function and aesthetics, performance must be considered in the specification process. Fortunately, rigorous testing standards and labeling programs enable designers to make informed choices. Examined here are window standards, certifications, testing, and labeling; window types and components; and window specification and installation considerations. 60 minutes.

Learning Objectives

  • Recall the regulatory bodies that develop the standards governing windows and discuss product testing and certification and window performance grades and classifications.
  • List the components of a window and explain their role in window function and energy-efficient performance.
  • Use National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) and ENERGY STAR energy performance ratings and labels to specify the appropriate window for its intended location.
  • Discuss specification considerations relating to sustainability objectives, energy efficiency parameters, value engineering, and aesthetics.
