<br />. <br />~ <br /> <br />Architectural Testing <br /> <br />February 28, 2003 <br /> <br />Marsh Fembaugh, Director of Testing <br />Alside Window Company <br />3773 State Road <br />Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio 44309-1365 <br /> <br />RE: Masonry Installation 0201 Double Hung Window 3' 8" wide by 5' 0" tall. <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Fembaugh: <br /> <br />I have performed an installation fastener analysis for your 0201 double hung window <br />installed to masonry block walls. The window size considered was 3' 8'1 wide by 5' 0" <br />tall. The design wind pressure for this window, as determined by the testing documented <br />in AT! Test Report 05-30324.05, is +/- 45.0 PSF. <br /> <br />My analysis assumed using 3/16" diameter Tapcon anchors with a minimum embedment <br />of 1-1/4". To safely resist the design wind pressure, 6 such anchors are required. At <br />installation, use three anchors in each jamb: one near the top comer, one at midspan and <br />one near the bottom comer. <br /> <br />This installation detail is appropriate for smaller windows of this model subjected to the <br />same design wind pressure. If you have any questions regarding my analysis, please <br />contact me. <br /> <br />Sincerely <br /> <br />ARCHITECTURAL TESTING, INC <br /> <br />~C~ <br />..... <br />seph ~.
