This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.Designation: E330∕E330M -14Standard Test Method forStructural Performance of Exterior Windows, Doors, Skylights and Curtain Walls by Uniform Static Air Pressure Difference1This standard is issued under (he fixed designation E33O/E33OM;岷 number immediately following (he designation indicates lhe year of original adoplion or, in (he case of revision, ιhe year of la$l revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of Iasi reapproval. A superscript epsilon (ε) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.7Λ⅛ standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Dejnirtment of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes the determination of the structural performance of exterior windows, d∞rs, skylights, and curtain walls under uniform static air pressure differences, using a test chamber. This test method is applicable to curtain wall assemblies including, but not limited to, metal, glass, masonry, and stone components.21.2 This test method is intended only for evaluating the structural performance associated with the specified test specimen and not the structural performance of adjacent construction.1.3 The proper use of this test method requires a knowledge of the principles of pressure and deflection measurement.1.4 This test method describes the apparatus and the procedure to be used for applying uniformly distributed test loads to a specimen.1.5 .1 Procedure A (see 11....
