AAMA 501.6-09 Seismic Test is a dynamic racking

test process that focuses on the seismic safety of
architectural glass mechanism within the systems of
curtain wall and storefront wall. It involves mounting
individuals on fully glazed wall panel samples on an
active racking test apparatus. The anchorage points
at the top move back and forth in sinusoidal motions
at increasingly higher racking amplitudes, as in a
musical crescendo. The anchorage points in the
bottom stay fixed, thus conveying a energetic, in-plane story waft on the test specimen.

At lower racking amplitudes, the dynamic racking frequencies are 0.8 Hz while at higher
racking amplitudes, frequencies are and 0.4 Hz. The extent at which glass fallout is observed
for the first time for a given specimen is called as ‘fallout’ for that test specimen. The value of RECENT POSTS
fallout for a particular wall system glazing configuration is reported as the lowest value of
racking dislocation causing glass fallout for three duplicate specimens tested in accordance University of Rhode Island: Finished Elevations
with AAMA 501.6. However, this value of fallout is considered greater than the real relative University of Rhode Island: Installation Photos

NeaCera is an affordable and pre-engineered terra cotta rainscreen system. It is an Atlantic County Institute of Technology
architectural drained and rear ventilated rainscreen system that provides lighter weight and
extremely strong panels utilizing firm and single wall design with rear reinforce ribs. This also
serves as an easy and fully integrated hanging panel mechanism. NeaCera rainscreen panels are
