8. Acoustics: Provide completed installation free of rattles, wind whistles and other noise due to thermal and structural movements and due to differential atmospheric pressures. 9. UV and Heat Resistance: All materials provided which are exposed to atmospheric heat and which are exposed to sunlight including materials exposed through glass shall be formulated not to loose properties due to exposure to heat and due to exposure to ultra-violet radiation, 10. Structural: Base design pressures, positive and negative as created by wind on a minimum, velocity of 45 m/sec (162kmihr). Allow for impact, suction, up lift and gusting of wind and take into account the building height and the proximity of adjacent buildings which could cause an increase to the forces due to venturi affect Engineer work to withstand within acceptable deflection limits, its own weight, forces applied by building structure movements, forces applied by adjacent components, and design loads due to wind, stack effect and rain, Engincer work to accommodate: a, Movements within components, 'b. Movements applied due to attached adjacent constructions. Movement applied due to the building structure, long and short term creep, column shortening, deflections, torsion, sway and racking. (obtain magnitude of movements from the Consultant). 4. Movements due to vibrations. Provisions shall ensure no damages, distortions, misalignments occur to the work and that integrity of thermal, air infiltration / exfiltraion, weather and water tightness barriers are maintained and aesthetic considerations are maintained, 2 Engineer work not to exceed following deflections under full design load 4. Framing members of curtain wall, the lesser of 12mm or 1/240 per span between anchorages to building structure Ensure deflection limits of glass are not exceeded b, Metal air barriers, maximum 3mm positive and maximum 3mm negative and avoidance of contact with adjacent members and constructions due to movements, ©. Engineer elastic deflections to prevent reduction of glass bite under full load from exceeding 25 mm. d, Engineer deflection limits to ensure integrity of seals and glazing are ‘maintained under full load, dynamically applied.
