Air Barrier Assemblies
Air barrier assemblies are divided into building assemblies for walls, roofs and foundations. These broad heading, in some cases, are then sub-divided into specific types of walls, roofs and foundations. Air barrier assemblies are made up of air barrier materials and connected with air barrier accessories.
Wall Air Barrier Assembly Evaluation
ABAA has set a maximum air leakage rate for wall air barrier assemblies as being 0.04 CFM/ft2 at a pressure difference of 1.57 lb./ft2 [0.20 L/(s·m2) at a pressure difference of 75 Pa] when tested in accordance with ASTM E 2357 Standard Test Method for Determining Air Leakage of Air Barrier Assemblies.
Scope of Evaluation
ABAA evaluations establish that the assembly tested passed a specified test. Such evaluation does not constitute a product warranty and provides no prediction of useful life or future performance.
