The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes international standards. Founded in 1947 and headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, ISO brings together experts from 170+ member countries to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.
A Working Group in ISO is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.
This document specifies the test method to evaluate the inter-storey displacement resistance of curtain walling to three-directional seismic or wind actions when curtain walling is subjected to repeated movement. The test method allows to determine, depending on the axes of the displacement imposed: - horizontal inter-storey displacement in-plane resistance; - horizontal inter-storey out-plane displacement resistance; - vertical inter-storey in-plane displacement resistance; - combined inter-storey displacement resistance. The test method can be used to evaluate the inter-storey displacement either when it is a design requirement or to assess the relative displacement accommodated by the curtain walling assembly. This test can be addressed manually or automatically depending on the size and/or the shape of the specimen.
