30 Forensic Investigation
31 ASTM References in AAMA 511 Forensic Investigation ASTM E 2128, Standard Guide for Evaluating Water Leakage of Building Walls This guide describes methods for determining and evaluating water leakage of exterior walls. A wall is considered a system including its exterior and interior finishes, fenestration, and structural components.
32 Forensic Investigation Involves more than just testing The purpose of diagnostic testing is to recreate water leaks that are known to occur AAMA 511 testing either follows up on AAMA 502 and 503 testing or is used in a water intrusion investigation
33 Forensic Investigation The ultimate goal of 511 diagnostic testing is to recreate existing leakage behavior that occurs under in-service conditions.
34 Forensic Investigation Four Preliminary Steps prior to testing Review of project documents Evaluation of design concept Determination of service history Inspection Three Steps During and After Testing Investigative Testing Analysis Report
35 Forensic Investigation Step #1: Review Project Documents Architectural drawings Structural drawings Shop drawings Installation instructions Contracts Purchase orders Specifications Warranties
36 Forensic Investigation Step # 2: Evaluation of Design Concept Water management concept Critical details Test reports Flashing Sealants Weep Holes
37 Forensic Investigation Step # 3: Determination of Service History Review maintenance records Interview knowledgeable personnel Research leak history
38 Forensic Investigation Step #4: Inspection Interior observations Exterior observations Observe workmanship Observe product deficiency Develop a hypothesis for the source of the water intrusion
39 Forensic Investigation
40 Forensic Investigation Determination is based on: Field Standards Laboratory Standards Prior Testing Weather Data Experience
41 Forensic Investigation Simulate the weather events Obtain wind speed If calculated wind speed is greater then 2/3 of the rated WTP for the product it may be that the product was not the most appropriate for the project. At least one pressure difference test must be done at the 2/3 pressure
42 Forensic Investigation ASCE 7 accounts for: Exposure Height above grade Basic wind speed (or weather data) Location of specimen within façade
43 Forensic Investigation
44 Forensic Investigation The objective of testing is to identify the leak paths
45 AAMA 511- Example 1 Consistent leaks more than one year Heaviest leakage twice during September 2005 Class II Building height is 33 ft., window (z) is 27 ft. above ground Window is 4 high x 4 wide, wind area (A) of 16 ft 2 AAMA rating C35
46 AAMA 511 Example #1
47 Estimating the Test Pressure AAMA 511- Example 1 ASCE/SEI 7 05 analysis is used with the following information: Location of building (Newark, NJ) Building usage designation (Class II) Exposure level (Exposure B) Building design (enclosed structure with a flat roof ) Building height (33 ft.) Window area (16 square ft.) From these features, the water resistance test pressure is, theoretically, 2.4 psf.
48 AAMA 511- Example 1 Local weather data is analyzed by daily readings for September of 2005, allowing the investigator to observe the weather condition, amount of precipitation and maximum wind speed for each day
49 AAMA 511 Example #1
50 AAMA 511- Example 1 The maximum 5 second gust wind speeds are recorded for every day in September in which measurable rainfall occurred Date Rain Fall (in) Max Wind Speed (mph) 5-Sec. Gust 4-Sep Sep Sep
51 AAMA 511- Example 1 Only two leak events are reported during September 2005 Average wind determined to be 34 mph Date Rain Fall (in) Max Wind Speed (mph) 5-Sec. Gust 4-Sep Sep Sep
52 AAMA 511- Example 1 Result = 2.1 psf which is the differential pressure used to evaluate the window opening in question Weather data analysis is used to determine field water penetration resistance pressure Table 3 of AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S. 2/A shows tested water penetration resistance pressure The result of the weather data analysis (2.2 psf ) is the differential pressure used to evaluate the window opening in question
53 AAMA 511- Example 2 Leak Reported during storm on September 21, 2005 Class II, Exposure C Building height is 60 ft., window (z) is 55 ft. above ground Window is 2 high x 2 wide, wind area (A) of 4 ft2 AAMA rating C35
54 Estimating the Test Pressure AAMA 511- Example 2 ASCE/SEI 7 05 analysis is used with the following information: Location of building (Chicago, Il) Building usage designation (Class II) Exposure level (Exposure C) Building design (enclosed structure with a flat roof ) Building height (60 ft.) Window area (4 square ft.) From these features, the water resistance test pressure is, theoretically, 3.2 psf.
55 AAMA 511- Example 2 Referring to tabulated local weather data above, the investigator can determine and record the maximum 5 second gust speeds on the date of the reported leak Date Rain Fall (in) Max Wind Speed (mph) 5-Sec. Gust 21-Sep
56 AAMA 511- Example 2 52 mph can now be used in Eq from SEI/ASCE 7 05 to establish a wind pressure of 7.9 psf Since specimen height is above 60 feet above grade, this wind pressure is inserted into Eq to calculate maximum test pressure Result = 8.4 psf, which is greater than the laboratory water penetration resistance test pressure of 5.25 psf as prescribed for a C 35 product rating. Since calculated differential air test pressure exceeds the rated performance value for the product, investigator shall first perform at least 1 test at 2/3 of the product performance rating prior to testing at calculated pressure.
57 Interior Weep Holes Water shall cover all horizontal surfaces expected to be wet Tape applied over Exterior Weep Test Water Head measured from bottom of exterior wrap AAMA 511 Example #2
58 Recreating the Leak Need to determine: How to apply water How long to run test Whether or not to include differential pressure How much air pressure How to step or phase pressure
59 Recreating the Leak
60 Recreating the Leak
61 Recreating the Leak How long would you test these substrates?
62 Recreating the Leak Which application best fulfills the objective?
63 Recreating the Leak
64 Recreating the Leak
65 Recreating the Leak How does differential pressure affect the test specimen?
66 Recreating the Leak Start with zero differential pressure then step up to higher pressures
67 Recreating the Leak
68 Recreating the Leak
69 Recreating the Leak Start testing at lower elevations and work higher Introduce one new element at a time into each new water test Use isolation to protect features from water spray Do not turn the water off at the first moment a leak appears Try to trace the leak from the exterior to the interior and use destructive wall probes as required to identify this leak path Do not end non-leaking tests until you are confident the specimen is not contributing to leakage
70 Recreating the Leak No or limited leak history Leak reported as window leak when leak is actually from another source Not enough water pressure Not able to achieve differential pressure Owner does not want to remove interior finishes No or limited access to concealed wall areas Inclement weather Isolation failures

72 Identifying the Source
73 Identifying the Source
74 Identifying the Source
75 Identifying the Source
76 Analysis and Reporting The forensic investigator has the responsibility to make every attempt to ascertain the exact path of water intrusion Conclusions are formed in this step on the basis of the inspection and testing data collected in the previous steps. If conclusions cannot be fully supported by sound scientific principles then additional investigation is needed
77 Analysis and Reporting All reports shall be self-contained documents Shall include justification for deviations from the methodology described in the standard The reports shall not include any unsubstantiated opinions or conclusions. If results are not conclusive the forensic investigator shall present options for obtaining conclusive results
