Project Summary: Architectural Testing, Inc. (ATI) was contracted by Fleetwood Aluminum Products to perform test on Series/Model “YUKON500T” six window system. Test specimen consisting of two windows mulled side by side, measured 7' 11-1/2" wide by 6' 0" high and was tested in accordance with the following requirements Metro Dade County Protocols:
PA 201-94, “Impact Test Procedures”
PA 202-94, Criteria for Testing Impact and Non Impact Resistance Building Envelope Components Using Static Air Pressure Loading”.
PA 203-94, “Criteria for Testing Products Subject to Cyclic Wind Pressure Loading”.
The samples tested met the performance requirements set forth in the protocol for a ± 65 psf Design Load rating. This results summary is for information only and is not an official report. The official results of this testing will be documented in ATI Report No. 03-31366.02
