1、Designation:E213604(Reapproved 2013)An American National StandardStandard Guide forSpecifying and Evaluating Performance of Single FamilyAttached and Detached DwellingsDurability1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2136;the number immediately following the designation indicates the
2、year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis guide is part of a set which together presents a comp
3、lete performance standard guide forspecifying and evaluating single family attached and detached dwellings.The complete set in theseries,when finished,is to include the attributes given in Fig.1.The series provides a framework for specifying and evaluating qualities of building products andsystems t
4、o meet user needs without limiting ways and means.The format for this guide includesperformance statements that consist of four components,Objectives-Criteria-Evaluation-Commentary(O-C-E-C),which together provide a systematic performance based approach for the intendedpurpose.These performance state
5、ments are presented in Section 8 against a Hierarchy of BuildingElements as tabulated in Fig.2.The purpose of these standard guides is to provide a standardized methodology for describingperformance parameters of single-family attached or detached dwellings.This methodology standard-izes the descrip
6、tions of performance of a single-family dwelling,attached or detached,that can beexpressed as performance statements(O-C-E-C)for a particular attribute,degradation factor,and userneed.These standard guides are intended for use by those who need to prescribe required levels ofperformance and those wh
7、o need to rate a product which forms a single-family dwelling or partthereof.The standard guides include examples of performance statements that may be used for thespecification and evaluation of design,materials,products,components,subsystems,and systems.1.Scope1.1 This guide gives examples of perf
8、ormance statementsfor durable in-place materials,products,components,subsystems,and systems for single family attached and de-tached dwellings,considering the effects of normal degradationfactors to which they are anticipated to be subjected over theirservice lives.Table 1 provides a listing of the
9、sections of thisGuide that address durability including the performance state-ments.1.2 Damage from extreme acts of nature,vandalism,orintentional destructive acts by dwelling inhabitants are notconsidered as normal degradation factors affecting durability inthis guide.NOTE1Performance statements re
10、garding the performance of singlefamily attached and detached dwellings under extreme acts of nature areaddressed in the Guide on Structural Safety and Serviceability.1.3 This guide also addresses site planning in so far as itaffects the durability of single family attached and detacheddwellings.1.4
