1.1 This test method covers testing procedures for architectural joint systems. This test method is intended for the following uses for architectural joint systems:
1.1.1 To verify movement capability information supplied to the user by the producer,
1.1.2 To standardize comparison of movement capability by relating it to specified nominal joint widths,
1.1.3 To determine the cyclic movement capability between specified minimum and maximum joint widths without visual deleterious effects, and
1.1.4 To provide the user with graphic information, drawings or pictures in the test report, depicting them at minimum, maximum, and nominal joint widths during cycling.
1.2 This test method is intended to be used only as part of a specification or acceptance criterion due to the limited movements tested.
1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
