Poor or inadequate specification is a common cause of unsatisfactory performance of windows. Reliance on sales literature, or on claims to meet British Standards, can be inadequate without sufficient understanding of the performance required.
For many performance attributes, requirements for windows in particular use situations can be quantified and assessed by established tests. This Digest identifies performance requirements and assessment tests for windows, and reviews relevant British Standards and other information.
It replaces Digest 262 which is now withdrawn.
