IS 1948 : 2024 Aluminium Framed Doors, Windows and Sliders - Specification

ICS 91.060.50

CED 11

(Superseding IS 1949 : 1961)

1 SCOPE

1.1 This standard specifies the requirements for materials, performance requirement of whole units and tests of doors, windows and sliders made from aluminium alloy including constituent materials and glazing. The doors, windows and sliders may be non-insulated or thermally insulated based upon the application.

1.2 This standard does not apply to:

a) Windows and doors subject to regulations on smoke leakage and resistance to fire;

b) Curtain walls;

c) Industrial, commercial and garage doors;

d) Revolving doors;

e) Internal partitions including internal windows, doors and sliders; and

f) Bullet and blast resistance windows, doors and sliders.
