Item type:Publication, Influence of the Corner Joints of the Window Frame and Sash on the Final Quality of the Window(2025-12-04) ;Jevtoska, Elena; Mihajlovski, NikolaThe quality of a product is a characteristic that demonstrates how well it meets the needs for which it is intended. Given that, a window purpose is to provide light and desired ventilation to a room, while at the same time protecting the building from external influences such as air permeability, water permeability and wind resistance, we prove that it is of high quality the more it provides us with these conditions. A window as a product is a complex composition of different materials and parts. The different parts of a window include the basic structural elements, filling elements, fitting, and additional accessories. The basic structural elements of a window are the supporting frame and the window sash. The corner joints of these elements will be the target of research, in terms of how the strength of the joint of the corner segments of windows made of wooden frame, PVC frame or aluminium frame can affect the window's resistance to air permeability, water permeability and wind resistance. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, STRENGTH OF THE CORNER JOINTS OF THE WINDOW FRAME(2025-09-17) ;Jevtoska, Elena; Mihajlovski, NikolaThe window as a product used in construction aims to provide natural light and the possibility for ventilation in the building where it is placed but at the same time to protect the room from external influences such as wind and rain and to prevent uncontrolled cooling or heating of the building in which it is built-in. Given the purpose, a quality window is one that protects against air permeability, water permeability and provide wind resistance. The window is a complex product that is composed of different parts that can be made of different materials. This research is focused on the area of frame joining and joint strength. This research will cover windows made from the same PVC profile but manufactured in different production facilities. The windows will be measured for air permeability, water permeability and wind resistance, and corner samples will be taken after wards. The samples are prepared according to the standard EN 514:2018 Plastics - Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) based profiles - Determination of the strength of welded corners and T-joints.
