Course description: AEC Daily: Pultruded Fiberglass Windows
Window frames offer many important benefits for buildings, especially when it comes to energy and environmental performance, and frame material selection is a critical aspect of the design process. This course discusses pultruded fiberglass window systems and compares them with traditional wood, aluminum, and PVC window systems across a wide variety of performance attributes.
Explain the fiberglass pultrusion process and the properties of pultruded fiberglass that make it an ideal product for the fenestration industry.
Compare and evaluate the performance characteristics—thermal expansion and conductivity, and material strength and longevity—of fiberglass, wood, aluminum, and PVC window systems, and determine their impact on the design goals of a project and the environment.
Compare fiberglass window systems to wood, aluminum, and PVC window systems in terms of their green characteristics, including embodied energy, energy efficiency, toxicity, and indoor and outdoor environmental issues.
Describe the AAMA performance standards, the National Fenestration Council’s procedures and ratings, and the ENERGY STAR® program, and use these standards and ratings to specify product type based on performance level and key performance attributes.
