A Field Quality Control Check, the AAMA 501.2 is a great tool for checking the success of an ongoing installation of curtain wall or storefront.
A common mistake however is to use the AAMA 501.2 as an acceptance test in new construction. To perform an acceptance field quality control test, the best procedure is an ASTM E-1105.
How Do You Determine The Length of An AAMA 501.2 ?
Total perimeter length measurement + total intermediate framing length measurement = Total linear length of test subject.
The AAMA 501.2 is administered at a rate of 5' per 5 minutes of spray application.
Example:
- Curtain Wall sample is 25 feet in length by 16 feet high.
- There are three vertical frame members within the section and two horizontal frame members.
- Horizontal Frame = 100 ft
- Vertical Frame = 80 ft
- Total Linear Test Subject = 180 ft
180 ft @ 5 ft per 5 minutes = 3 hours to perform the Quality Control Check / AAMA 501.2
