NZS 4211:2008 Specification for performance of windows | Building CodeHub
Amendment 1 - incorporated. Published 28/05/2014.
This Standards specifies requirements for the performance of windows to be installed in exterior walls within the wind pressure limitations of the wind zones defined in table 5 and table 6.
The properties covered are strength, stiffness, operating facility, air infiltration, and water penetration.
This Standard specifically excludes skylights or roof windows, interior windows, fixed louvres, the weathertightness of the window perimeter in the external wall or facade, the fire rating, building facades, and durability.
This Standard specifically excludes:
(a) Skylights or roof windows;
(b) Interior windows;
(c) Fixed louvres;
(d) Acoustics, thermal, and security performance;
(e) The weather tightness of the window perimeter in the external wall or facade;
(f) The fire rating;
(g) Building facades (including curtain walls); and
(h) Durability
