RE: Performance of Woodroffe "Fixed Roof Window" To AS4285-Skylights

Dear Sir,

Further to your request, a summary of the performance achieved by Woodroffe "Fixed Roof Window" skylights tested at our NATA accredited laboratory in July and September 1998 is given below. Testing was performed in accordance with the requirements of AS4285 Skylights, Section 11.2 Skylight Assemblies only, with full details of the tests and results given in Ian Bennie and Associates' test reports 9753S2 and 9753S3.

Woodroffe Model: Fixed Roof Window

Sample size: 1140w x 1140h

Watertightness Test: PASS at 27°

Concentrated Load Test: 10.38mm laminated glass - PASS

Non-cyclonic Wind Pressure Test: PASS at ulimate design pressures of +5.9 and -6.0 kPa
Permissible Stress Design Pressure rating +3.9 / -4.0 kPa

This satisfies the test requirements for skylight assemblies of AS4285 Skylights at the stated design wind pressures.

Yours faithfully,
