If the class is not indicated in the documentation for installation seams, then it must be at least class B.

5 Technical requirements

5.1 General provisions

5.1.1 Assembly seams at the junction points of window and door units are made in accordance with the requirements of this standard according to design and technological documentation approved in the prescribed manner.

5.1.2 When developing structural solutions for installation joints, a set of materials should be used that work together and ensure that the following requirements are met:

tightness (impenetrability) when exposed to precipitation and wind in accordance with current regulatory documents (ND); determined by the outer layer;
absence of local freezing along the contour of the junction of the window block and the wall opening;
resistance to operational loads;
durability in accordance with the estimated service life of the window unit, but not lower than the requirements of this standard.

The materials used in the manufacture of assembly seams at the junction points of window and door units must ensure the possibility of their replacement during operation after the durability specified in this standard. The use of non-replaceable materials is permitted subject to confirmation of their durability for the entire period specified in the contract.

5.1.3 The construction of the assembly seam includes three or four layers that have different functional purposes:

main central layer - providing heat and sound insulation: - outer sealing layer - ensuring diffusion of moisture from the assembly seam and protection from atmospheric influences (rain moisture, ultraviolet radiation, wind);
internal sealing layer - providing vapor barrier and protecting the insulating layer from diffuse vaporous moisture from inside the room.

When installing window structures in external walls constructed using wet processes (masonry, monolithic concrete), it is necessary to protect the insulating layer from the migration of process moisture from the adjacent wall by installing an additional layer:

additional layer - a water and vapor barrier layer between the middle layer of the seam and the surface of the opening, which can be arranged to prevent moisture or steam from the wall material from penetrating into the seam.

Deformations of the window (door) block resulting from temperature differences (shear forces and tension-compression) must be absorbed by any one layer of the installation seam or due to the combined work of materials of two or three layers.

The choice of a constructive solution for the junction of a window (door) block to the opening of an external wall is carried out at the stage of developing architectural and design solutions, taking into account the existing loads and is confirmed by appropriate calculations.

Application constructive principle construction of an assembly seam other than that specified in this paragraph above is permitted subject to appropriate justification in the form of calculations, full-scale or laboratory tests.

Options for constructing an assembly seam are shown in Figure 2 (see options A and B).

I - outer waterproofing, vapor-permeable layer;

II - central heat and sound insulation layer;

III - internal vapor barrier layer;

IV - additional water and vapor barrier layer

Figure 2 - Construction seam option

5.1.4 Structural solutions for installation joints must be developed taking into account the material of the external walls and geometry window openings, as well as special technological requirements for window units according to. Examples of design solutions for junctions of window blocks to wall openings are given in Appendix B.

5.1.5 Assembly joints must be resistant to various operational influences and loads: atmospheric factors, temperature and humidity influences from the room, force (temperature, shrinkage, etc.) deformations, wind and other loads (in accordance with the required class).

Requirements for thermal performance and deformation resistance of installation joints must correspond to the values in Table 1 and are established in the design and working documentation.

5.1.6 Materials for construction of installation joints are selected taking into account the force operational influences.

5.1.7 Thermal characteristics of the installation joint must provide temperature values on the internal surface not lower than the dew point temperature at given values of the internal microclimate (depending on the purpose of the room) in accordance with the external air for the temperature conditions of the coldest five-day period in a particular region.

5.1.8 The air, water tightness and sound insulation values of the seam must be no lower than the corresponding indicators for the window unit.

Note - The required levels of sound insulation are ensured by the design of the junction unit, which includes the assembly seam. The specified characteristics of installation seams are not regulated by the requirements of this standard, but are ensured by compliance with the requirements.

5.1.9 The general design solution of the junction unit (including the installation seam, elements of additional weather protection, finishing of the slopes, as well as all other elements that ensure the complete connection of the window block with the opening) must exclude the possibility of cold air infiltration through the installation seams in winter (through blowing).

5.1.10 Outer sealing layer (see position 2 , Figure 1) may have additional weather protection in the form of special profile elements, rainproof strips, linings, etc.

On the inside, the installation seams are covered with a layer of plaster or cladding parts for window slopes and a window sill.

In the lower part of the window opening, protection from atmospheric influences is additionally provided by ebb (see position 5 , Figure 1), additional profile elements, etc.

5.1.11 The durability of assembly joints must be at least 20 conventional years of operation.

5.1.12 General requirements for construction seam materials - in accordance with Appendix A.

5.2 Dimensional requirements

5.2.1 Minimum dimensions of installation gaps for window units various designs taken in accordance with Table 2, Figure 3, as well as from the condition of ensuring the possibility of free thermal expansion of the window block without the occurrence of bending deformations of the profile elements.

Figure 3 - Installation gap location

Mounting clearance dimensions

Material of profile elements	Overall size of the window block, mm	Installation gap size, mm
Material of profile elements	Overall size of the window block, mm	a	b
1 Tree	over 2000	10-45	5-20
2 Aluminum alloys	Same	15-60	5-20
3 PVC white	≤2000	20-60	10-20

5 PVC, dyed	≤2000	15-65	10-20
6 PVC, dyed	2000-3500	15-60	15-20

It is recommended to additionally confirm the design dimensions of installation gaps in relation to the climatic conditions of the construction area by calculating the possible temperature change in the size of the window unit in the direction perpendicular to the designed seam (Appendix B).

The value of the installation gap for strip glazing structures exceeding 6 m and facade glazing is taken on the basis of technical calculations (recommendations of the profile system manufacturer).

The maximum size of the installation gap is determined based on the characteristics of the material of the central layer; the recommended size is no more than 60 mm.

5.2.2 The dimensions and configuration of window openings must correspond to those established in the working project documentation.

5.2.3 The deviation from the vertical and horizontal sides of the opening should not exceed 4.0 mm per 1 m. The check is carried out in three ways:

building level, while measuring the width and height is carried out at least three times;
measuring the diagonals of the opening;
laser plane builder.

5.2.4 When determining installation gaps, it is necessary to take into account the maximum deviation from the dimensions of the window block frames. Deviations from the vertical and horizontal of the mounted window blocks should not exceed 1.5 mm per 1 m of length, but not more than 3 mm per product height. Installation of window blocks in openings with deviations in geometric dimensions exceeding those specified in 5.2.3 is not allowed.

5.3 Requirements for the preparation of installation gap surfaces

5.3.1 The edges and surfaces of openings should not have chips, cavities, mortar overflows and other damage with a height (depth) of more than 10 mm.

Defective areas must be filled with waterproof compounds.

Voids in the slopes of wall openings (for example, cavities at the joints of the facing and main layers of brickwork at the junctions of lintels and masonry; gouges formed when removing frames when replacing window blocks, etc.) should be filled with inserts made of rigid foam insulation, antiseptic wood or plaster mixtures. When using mineral wool insulation, it is recommended to provide protection against moisture saturation. When installing window blocks in quarter openings, the recommended penetration beyond the quarter frame of the window block should be at least 10 mm.

Surfaces contaminated with oil should be degreased. Loose, crumbling areas of the opening surfaces must be strengthened (treated with binders or special film materials).

5.3.2 Before installing insulating materials into the installation gap, the surfaces of window openings and structures must be cleaned of dust, dirt and oil stains, and in winter conditions - from snow, ice, frost with subsequent heating of the surface.

5.3.3 The sequence of technological operations required to perform an assembly seam is developed in the work project in the form of technological maps. Technological maps should be developed taking into account general climatic features construction area, as well as the expected time of year for installation work.

The development of a technological map or regulations should be carried out taking into account the operations necessary to prepare the surfaces of the wall opening, as well as taking into account the requirements established in Appendix D.

5.4 Safety requirements

D.5 Calculation example

It is necessary to calculate the temperature field and evaluate the possibility of condensation on the surface of the junction of a window block made of laminated wood to the pier of a single-layer brick wall made of solid brick on cement-sand mortar (horizontal section). The outer waterproofing layer is pre-compressed sealing tape, the central layer is foam insulation, the inner layer is vapor barrier tape. Surface window slope insulated with a thermal liner made of extruded polystyrene foam 25 mm thick. The main dimensions and characteristics of the materials of the window block and the outer wall are presented in Figure D.2.

Initial data: calculated internal air temperature t B p =20 °C; calculated outside air temperature t H p = minus 28 ° C; dew point temperature t p =10.7 °C; calculated heat transfer coefficient of the inner surface of the wall α B st =8.7 W/(m 2 °C), calculated heat transfer coefficient of the internal surface of the window block α B approx =8.0 W/(m 2 °C), external heat transfer coefficient surface of the wall and window block α n = 23.0 W/(m 2 °C).

The design area of the junction node is taken along the symmetry axes of the window block and the pier of the outer wall. The design scheme is presented in Figure D.2a), the scheme for setting boundary conditions is shown in Figure D.2b).

b) Scheme for specifying boundary conditions

1 - brickwork λ = 0.8 W/(m °C); 2 - cement-sand mortar λ = 0.93 W/(m °C); 3 - wood across the fibers λ = 0.22 W/(m °C); 4 - polyurethane foam λ = 0.05 W/(m °C); 6 - extruded polystyrene foam λ = 0.05 W/(m °C); 7 - glass λ = 0.76 W/(m °C); 8 - air gap 12 mm λ eq 0.08 W/(m °C); 9 - aluminum λ = 220 W/(m °C); 10 - sealant λ = 0.34 W/(m °C); 11 - vapor barrier tape λ = 0.56 W/(m °C)

Figure E.2 - Design diagram and diagram for specifying the boundary conditions of the junction of the window block to the window opening

The calculation results are presented in Figure D.3 in the form of temperature distribution (isotherms) over the cross section of the calculated area and the temperature values of the internal and external surfaces at the individual most characteristic points.

Figure D.3 - Results of calculating the temperature distribution at the junction of a window block made of laminated wood to a wall made of solid brick

Analysis of the calculation results shows that the minimum temperature of the internal surface is observed in the area where the window frame interfaces with the slope of the window opening and is t b min= 12.6 °C. A comparison of the minimum temperature of the internal surface with the dew point temperature indicates the absence of conditions for condensation on the surface of this junction unit (at the same time, the temperature on the internal surface of the glass unit in the area of the spacer frame is 3.4 ° C, which leads to condensation in this area, but does not contradict the requirements of the current ND).

E.3.4 Before starting to record the results of measuring temperatures and heat flows, carry out a thermal imaging survey of the inner surface of the window block and the nodes adjacent to wall structure according to . Thermal imaging is performed perpendicular to the surface of the window block. Initially, the entire window block is photographed, including the mounting seams. After its completion, a detailed survey of structural fragments that have temperature inhomogeneities is performed.

It is permissible to choose the difference between the warm and cold compartments of the climate chamber less than is regulated and, with appropriate justification.

E.3.5 An example of thermal imaging of the inner surface of a window block and the junction with a wall structure is shown in Figure E.1.

Figure E.1 - An example of thermal imaging of the inner surface of a window block and the junction with a wall structure

If a temperature inhomogeneity is detected on the inner surface of the assembly seam, it is analyzed for compliance with the requirements of the current normative documents on the temperature on the inner surface, and the local temperature value is measured with a temperature probe or thermocouple.

An assembly joint that has local temperature values less than the dew point temperature for given internal microclimate conditions is considered defective.

Based on the results of measuring the minimum temperature on the inner surface of the assembly joint, taking into account data on the dew point temperature in a particular region and depending on the type of building in accordance with Appendix P, it is assigned a class according to Table 1 of this standard.

E.4 Carrying out full-scale tests

E.4.1 Before conducting a full-scale survey, computer modeling of all typical units is carried out in accordance with Appendix E for the external and internal air temperatures expected during the full-scale survey. The modeling results are presented in graphical or tabular form for comparison with the results of the field survey.

E.4.2 Before conducting a full-scale survey, the structure must be brought to a stationary mode.

E.4.3 Control field measurements of temperatures on the inner surface of the weld can be carried out at any time of the year.

Provided that work on sealing seams is carried out in winter in an unheated room, before the start of measurements, the temperature in the control room should be increased to 20 ° C and maintained for 24 hours before the start of measurements. Control temperature measurements are recommended to be carried out under cloudy skies without exposure to direct solar radiation .

It is allowed to carry out tests at a temperature difference between the external and internal air that is no less than 1.5 times greater than the accuracy limit of the thermal imaging camera, but not less than 15 °C.

Methodology for determining air permeability and defects in junctions of window blocks to wall openings under natural conditions

I.1 Essence of the technique

The method for determining air permeability and defects in the joints of window blocks to wall openings is intended for carrying out full-scale work to control the quality of execution and air permeability of the assembly seam.

The essence of the technique is to create a standardized pressure difference between interior space and external space, measuring the air permeability of the installation seam, monitoring the quality of its execution using a device for creating a pressure difference between the room and environment, thermal imaging equipment and a smoke generator.

When conducting full-scale tests, equipment in accordance with GOST 31167 is used, taking into account the requirements.

I.2 Requirements for samples

I.2.1 When conducting a full-scale survey, random tests of windows of each type of size are carried out, but not less than 5% of the total glazing area.

I.2.2 If there are special solutions for abutment nodes, as well as identified deviations from design solutions, 100% of the structures are inspected.

I.3 Preparation for full-scale tests

I.3.1 Before carrying out full-scale tests, select the most typical rooms that have standard window units installed in accordance with the design documentation.

I.3.2 It is recommended to use two equipment systems in accordance with GOST 31167. One of the sets of equipment creates the required pressure difference in the tested room, the other is installed on the entrance or on the floor to create compensating pressure and eliminate errors due to the pressure difference between adjacent rooms. All doors in this case , with the exception of the test room, must be open.

I.3.3 Temporary sealing of window blocks and their adjoining units is carried out.

Temporary sealing of window blocks and seams of assembly units connecting window blocks is carried out with adhesive adhesive tapes and films using polyethylene films and other suitable technical devices and materials.

I.3.4 The premises are prepared for testing in accordance with the requirements of GOST 31167.

I.3.5 It is allowed to carry out tests when the temperature difference between the external and internal air is no less than 1.5 times greater than the accuracy limit of the thermal imaging camera, but not less than 5 °C.

I.4 Carrying out full-scale tests of air permeability of seams of assembly joints connecting window blocks

I.4.1 Negative pressure differences are created in the selected rooms and testing is carried out in accordance with section 8 of GOST 31167.

I.4.2 The maximum pressure difference is determined to be 100 Pa, the decrease and increase in pressure difference is carried out in steps with a difference of 10 Pa. Before the start and at the end of the tests, the static pressure drop is measured with averaging in an interval of 30 s, which is taken into account when processing the results. The minimum number of measurement points is seven.

When conducting tests, it is necessary to comply with safety requirements in accordance with section 11 of GOST 31167.

I.4.3 After completing the tests in accordance with I.4.1, the temporary sealing of window blocks and abutment units is removed. Window units are sealed, including opening elements and junctions between double-glazed windows and profile elements.

I.4.4 Repeat the procedure according to I.4.1 and I.4.2. Air permeability of junction points R Δp w, m 3 /(h linear m) are determined by the formula:

R Δp = Q Δp / L, (I.1)

Where L- total length of joints tested simultaneously, m;

Q Δp - the difference between the air flow at a given pressure Δp, Pa, with and without temporary sealing of the seams of the assembly joints of the window blocks.

I.4.5 The normalized value of air permeability of seams of assembly units abutting window blocks is determined at a pressure drop value of Δp = 100 Pa.

I.5 Carrying out full-scale tests of air permeability of seams of assembly joints connecting window blocks

I.5.1 Before carrying out the tests according to I.4.1, thermal imaging surveys of the seams of the assembly joints connecting window blocks are carried out at a pressure difference of at least 50 Pa on the side of the lowest pressure. At the same time, photographic recording of all detected deviations from design solutions and the requirements of this standard is carried out.

I.5.2 After completion of work according to I.4.3, a repeat thermal imaging survey of the assembly seams of the junction points of the window blocks is carried out. If a difference in temperature fields from the results according to I.5.1 is detected, an analysis of each detected deviation is carried out.

I.5.3 If possible, check assembly joints with detected temperature inhomogeneities using a smoke generator.

A stream of smoke is directed directly to the detected area with detected temperature inhomogeneities from the outside.

If there is a defect caused by increased air infiltration through the assembly seam, smoke penetration is likely, allowing the detected defect to be localized.

I.5.4 If inhomogeneity of temperature fields is detected that does not change as a result of the creation of a pressure difference, the defect is probably in the nature of a transmission component (inclusions with increased heat loss) and must be diagnosed in accordance with Appendix E of this standard.

I.5.5 All identified defects are subject to correction. If correction is not possible, the window unit must be reinstalled.

I.5.6 After correcting the identified defects, a repeat full-scale test is carried out.

Until 2003, the installation of PVC windows and balcony blocks was not regulated by the state. Window installation specialists were guided by the technology proposed by the manufacturers of these structures. Whether she was wrong or not is difficult to judge. But the number of complaints about freezing, blowing and leaking frames exceeded acceptable limits. In order to eliminate these problems, GOST 3071-2002 was adopted at the beginning of March 2003, and the installation of windows in accordance with GOST became mandatory.

What is installation of a PVC window according to GOST

The introduction of a document regulating the installation of window joints and connections at one time caused a lot of controversy and disagreement. Companies specializing in window installations were unhappy with the upcoming costs of purchasing additional materials and increased labor costs.

The fact is that the state standard has approved several standards requiring the use in installation of materials that were not previously used, or were used reluctantly. This entailed an increase in the cost of the work of the performers and, accordingly, the consumer. Which, it was believed, could lead to a decrease in demand for window services.

But the worries were in vain. It was consumers who were the first to appreciate the benefits of GOST. Which is not surprising, since the document is entirely focused on improving the operating conditions of window and balcony units. What are these improvements?

Installation plastic windows according to GOST with vapor and waterproofing of gaps. The document provided a definition of an assembly seam, indicating the materials required for its construction. Now the correct seam should consist of three layers: outer, waterproofing and vapor-permeable.
Recommended clearance parameters are indicated.
Requirements for surface preparation have been determined.
Acceptance rules have been established.
The maximum permissible distances between attachment points are indicated. For plastic profile this is 70 mm.
A list of actions for testing the quality of structures is given.
The maximum service life of the materials used is indicated: at least 20 years.

We didn’t ignore this one either important element window design, like low tide. According to GOST, it is now protected from below with diffusion tape made of polyester. This ensures a strong hold metal sheet to the wall and box. The presence of a tape on the lower ebb plane significantly reduces the noise from raindrops.

Application of standards in practice

Since March 2003, installers began to work in accordance with accepted standards. But for a consumer unfamiliar with the intricacies of this work, the question inevitably arises: what does it mean to install a window according to GOST? Knowing the answers will help you track the correctness of the installation and ensure its quality. The first thing you need to know is that all seams of the window unit should now consist of three parts.

The central one is made of polyurethane foam, which has high frost and moisture resistance.
The outer one is made of waterproofing tape.
The inner one is made of vapor barrier tape.

The basic principle of installation can be explained as follows: the inner part of the seam must have low thermal conductivity, and the side parts protecting it must have vapor permeability. In this case, if moisture penetrates the polyurethane foam, it will freely escape in the form of steam and will not cause harm to the insulating layer (spray foam).

Advantages of installation

Advantages compared to conventional professional installation, some. But they are all so important that it is unwise to ignore them.

Subject to compliance with all Gosstandart standards, freezing and leakage of seams is excluded. Consequently, and window frames.
The possibility of mold and mildew formation is excluded.
The insulating layer (spray foam) is protected from moisture and will not collapse prematurely. If installed incorrectly, with no protective tapes, yellowing of the foam can be observed. Under the influence of moisture, its structure becomes loose and destruction processes begin. Such foam loses its thermal insulation properties with all that it entails: the windows begin to freeze, leak, and are no longer reliable barrier for the wind.
The ebb is connected to the wall more tightly by the frame, which provides an additional thermal insulation effect and increases the service life of the window unit.

There is another important advantage of complying with the requirements of Gosstandart. If the consumer remains dissatisfied with the quality of installation and orders the service independent examination, the company that installed this window, in best case scenario threatened with reinstallation. And the worst thing is considerable expenses.

Materials required when installing windows

Among installers of plastic windows, GOST 3071-2012 is called “tape”. This is due to the fact that, in accordance with the requirements of this document, it is necessary to protect the seams with “ribbons” - narrow-width products: vapor barrier, self-expanding and diffusion.

Materials for installing plastic windows according to GOST:

PSUL tapes(self-expanding sealing);
GPL (vapor barriers), made of butyl rubber or aluminum foil, for internal protection of seams;
diffusion polyester for external protection.

PSUL tapes are a self-expanding material and are sold in rolls. During installation, it is extremely important to choose the degree of increase in the volume of the tape. This indicator is always indicated on the packaging. So, for gaps 10 mm wide, you need to choose a tape with an expansion range of 30-40 units. The most popular brands of tapes are Profband, PSUL-EUROBAND, Liplent, Robiband.

Polyethylene tape GPL (water vapor barrier) is made on the basis of foam rubber. On one side there is an adhesive base, in the middle there is a vapor-permeable material, on the other side there is a laminated base and inserts made of metallized material (foil). The purpose of these tapes is to reflect heat back into the room and protect the polyurethane foam from moisture. Popular brands: TYTAN Professional, KLEBEBANDER, “Germetic-Abris”.

Diffusion tapes are laid under the tide to protect the seam from moisture on the outside of the window. These materials are also made from butyl rubber, but they have two adhesive bases: on each side. That's why protective material firmly adheres to both the ebb and the opening. Popular brands: HAUSER, Robiband, Ultima, WS.

Installation technology according to GOST

Installation of plastic windows according to GOST 30971-2012, step-by-step technology which is proposed, can be performed independently.

Step 1: Using a stiff bristle brush or paint brush sweep away dust and debris.

Step 2. The seams between the bricks are leveled with moisture-resistant putty.

Step 3. Cover the putty with a layer of primer.

Step 4. Open the window unit and remove the sash.

Step 5. Remove the stand profile from the bottom of the frame.

Step 6. Glue the PSUL at the junction of the frame and the stand profile.

Step 7. If installed balcony block, remove the docking profile and outside frames At the junction with the opening, PSUL tape is glued along the entire perimeter. If you install a window, immediately glue the tape around its perimeter.

Step 8. Take a simple pencil and a tape measure. Mark the attachment points on the PVC profile. In accordance with the requirements of the standard, the distance between these points should not exceed 70 cm. The hole should be 150-180 mm from the corner of the frame.

Step 9. Drill holes. The diameter of the drill must be smaller than the diameter of the bolt or self-tapping screw.

Step 10. Support blocks are installed on the opening, which will be located under the frame.

Step 11. Insert the frame and fix it with self-tapping screws.

Step 12. From the street side, mark the places where the PSUL is attached.

Step 13. Remove the frame and, with a shift of 0.5 cm from the markings, glue the PSUL.

Step 14. Install the starting profile for the slopes on the frame.

Step 15. Cover the frame with GPL tape on the inside.

Step 16. Install the frame and level it. Drill holes in the wall for dowels and perform final fixation.

Step 17. Install the sashes.

Step 18. Fill the seam polyurethane foam.

Step 19. After 15-20 minutes, the GPL tape is aligned along the slopes.

Step 20. GPL is installed under the window sill.

Step 21. Install the window sill.

Step 22. A diffusion tape is installed under the ebb.

Step 23. Attach the ebb.

Installing a window according to GOST, the instructions for which are given above, is a simple task. If you comply with all the requirements of Gosstandart, the window openings will be reliably insulated and sealed.
