BC Building Envelope Council – Performance Mock-Up Testing: Failures and Lessons Learned
Performance mock-up testing can offer valuable insights into the capabilities of a curtain wall system and can provide a high level of risk mitigation when using bespoke systems on a project, or when using a standard system in a different configuration or under unique circumstances. However, there can be significant pushback to reduce the scale of test samples, types of tests to be included, or to avoid testing altogether through reliance on historical test information. This presentation will offer an insight into a variety of failures observed by Morrison Hershfield during performance mock-up testing, the lessons learned, and considerations to be made when specifying performance mock-up testing.
