Notes: |
|
The
servicability values shown left are based on 1/150 maximum
allowable metal deflection. Windows have been tested
for compliance with AS2047.
Numbers relate to the jamb locking double sash designs
502, 504 and 506.
Significantly higher ratings can be achieved with
the centre
locking meeting stiles.
Also consider Magnum™
sliding windows.

Meeting Stiles: The limiting strength factor on sliders without lowlights will be the strength of the meeting stiles. The tables below show how the strength of windows will change as the meeting stiles change.
Transoms: On frames fitted with overlights (transoms) the
transom will in most cases be the weak link. Refer
following page for transom options. For centre locking windows go to next page.
