DOOR – PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENT Suitable finish and construction to withstand natural elements External Door Main function: To provide access and egress through enclosing fabric of building Good fit to exclude wind and rain Glazed area to provide natural daylight to the interior Adequate locks and bolts for security Design to give required thermal and sound insulation When closed door should act in conjunction with surrounding fabric as an enclosing element Weathered at bottom to shed surface water Design to give required fire resistance Last Updated: dpc © LMS SEGi education group 8

DOOR – PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENT When closed the door should act in conjunction with surrounding fabric as an internal dividing element Internal Door Main function: To provide access and agress through internal wall or partition Good fit to provide thermal comfort and privacy Design to give required thermal insulation, sound insulation and fire resistance Adequate lock for security Architrave Colour and design to blend with internal decor Last Updated: Skirting © LMS SEGi education group 9

TERMINOLOGY • • Last Updated: Door frame – consists of a sill, 2 post of jamb and a head Door head (lintel) – support the weight of the wall above Door jamb – vertical member of the door frame Architrave – sealing of the junction between the frame and the wall © LMS SEGi education group 10

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS • • Last Updated: Operable (can be open and close) Ironmongery (hinges, door lock, etc) Strength and stability (for security) Fire resistance (exit route requirements) © LMS SEGi education group 13

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS (CONT’D) • • Last Updated: Weather protection Sound insulation (for privacy) Aesthetic Durability © LMS SEGi education group 14

EXTERNAL DOOR • • Last Updated: These door are available in a variety of types and style, either in timber, aluminium alloy or steel. The majority of external doors are however made from timber, the metal doors being mainly confined to fully glazed doors such as ‘patio doors’. © LMS SEGi education group 15

INTERNAL DOOR – TYPES (CONT’D) Last Updated: © LMS SEGi education group 20

MATCHBOARDED DOORS • • Last Updated: These doors can be used as external or internal doors Are not particularly attractive in appearance It is simple and cheap to construct The use of this type of door is limited to buildings such as sheds, farm house, cottage, etc © LMS SEGi education group 21

FLUSH DOOR • • • Last Updated: The flush door construction can be considered either skeleton core doors or solid core doors The advantage of solid core doors are having a good sound insulation and provide a higher degree of fire resistance Solid flush door is suitable for the internal/ external use Flush door has the advantage of a plain face which is easy to clean and decorate Flush door can be faced with hardboard, plywood or a plastic laminate © LMS SEGi education group 22

FIRE RESISTANT DOOR • • Last Updated: These doors provide an effective barrier to the passage of fire from time to time designated by a reference coding The performance of fire door is simplified by expressing the category with the initials FD and the integrity in minutes numerically © LMS SEGi education group 23

FIRE RESISTANT DOOR (CONT’D) • • Last Updated: For example: FD 60 indicates a fire door with 60 minutes integrity These doors appear the same as ordinary flush door For one hour, an additional layer of 5 mm asbestos partition boards is bonded to each side of the flaxboard Internally the door is divided at mid height with a 65 mm central rail, and each half is filled with flaxboard or 9. 5 mm plasterboard nailed to each side of a timber framework. With a 4 mm veneered plywood facing an overall thickness of 45 mm, this construction satisfies the half-hour specification © LMS SEGi education group 24
