Air, Water, Structural—Mock-Up The POWER In Performance Testing Mock-up Testing Fast Facts •The largest and tallest mock-up wall in the world. • East and West Coast mock-up testing laboratories. • Can test multiple mock-ups at one time, with all the necessary cranes and lifts to simplify construction, testing and analysis. • Customer offices, customer lounge, telephone, fax and Internet access available for customers on-site during duration of mock-up construction and testing. • On-site machine shop, craftsmen, and tool crib keep the project moving efficiently in the face of unexpected issues. Value The integrity of a building envelope depends on the performance of its curtain wall. That’s why ATI offers architects and designers comprehensive mock-up testing capabilities to ensure their curtain walls are properly designed and will function as expected. The results of our testing are used to validate the design, workmanship, and material selection, and to gain the approval of clients, architects, and/or consultants. Tests are performed according to AAMA, ASTM, ANSI, CSA, CPSC, Architectural Project Specifications, and other standards and programs. Tests can involve precast structures, metal/glass, exterior skins, live or dead loads. Custom test conditions can be devised by ATI experts to measure other performance attributes. Recognized test methods and specifications are used to obtain data on: • Wind resistance • Air infiltration • Static and dynamic water resistance • Condensation • Structural loading • Security vulnerability • Thermal cycling • Impact safety • Fire • Acoustics • Interstory displacement (vertical movement) • Dynamic seismic performance (lateral movement) • Thermal transmittance • Sealant and gasket durability The ATI curtain-wall testing team is headed by by experts who have decades of experience in evaluation of exterior wall mock-ups.
