within an interior

• egress safety zone created by doors
• weather control
• visual distinction

Windows

• windows are described as being either
• 'operable', or 'fixed'.
• operable windows can be opened and closed to
  allow air passage.
• fixed windows are always closed.

32
types of windows

• double hung
• casement
• awning
• slider
• jalousie

double hung window
34
parts of a double hung window

• 1. Head The main horizontal member forming the
  top of the window or door frame.
• 2. Jamb The main vertical members forming the
  sides of a window or door frame.
• 3. Frame The enclosure in which window sash or
  door panels are mounted.
• 4. Glazing Glass in a window or door the act or
  process of fitting with glass.

35

• 5. Pane A framed sheet of glass within a window.
• 6. Sash A single assembly of stiles and rails
  made into a frame for holding glass.
• 7. Sill The main horizontal member forming the
  bottom of the frame of a window or door.
• 8. Muntin Bar Any small bar that divides a
  windows glass. Also called a grille or windowpane
  divider.

Standardization

• Many products are manufactured in 'standard'
  sizes. This does not mean that
• the product cannot be made in a different size,
  but it may mean that to do so will require time,
  effort, and expense.

40
Custom made

• 'custom' made means that the component is made
  specifically for a particular situation.
• 'custom' designed components are a common
  component in interiors projects, but each
  project, and each client/user, sets a scenario in
  which it will be determined that a 'custom' piece
  is appropriate, and feasible.

41

• Windows and doors are manufactured in standard
  sizes, such as
• 2'-8" x 6'-8" for an interior passage door
• 3'-0" x 6'-8" for entrance doors

• Astragal A vertical member attached to the
  meeting edge of one door panel of a pair,
  bridging the opening between the two door or
  window panels

45

• Mullion The stationary frame piece that
  separates mulled window or door units. Being
  joined by mullions makes multiple window or door
  units appear to be one. Not to be confused with
  muntin bar.
• Muntin Bar A short, light-weight bar that
  visually divides a window into separate panes.
  Not to be confused with mullion.

46

• Rails The top and bottom horizontal pieces of a
  door panel or window sash.
• R-Value Resistance to heat flow, a high R-value
  indicates that a window has good heat-insulating
  properties, whereas a low R-value indicates that
  a window has less heat-insulating value.

47
R value and U value

• U-factor is the measurement of heat transfer
  through a given building material.
• R-value depicts the amount of resistance a
  product has to heat transfer.
• The R-value is inversely proportional to the
  U-factor. That is, the higher the R-value of a
  window, the lower its U-factor will be The
  higher the R-value, the higher the resistance to
  energy transfer through the window.

48

• Sash The part of a window that holds the glass
  and is separate from the frame. In venting
  windows, it is the sash which can be opened and
  closed.
• Stiles The vertical pieces of a window or door
  sash panel.
