By Healthcare Facilities Today


A new video from Airolite details the Air Movement and Control Association International, Inc. (AMCA) Standard 540 Large Missile Impact Testing and its effect on the specification of louvers on buildings located within wind borne debris and hurricane prone regions. The AMCA 540 Standard requires that manufacturers test louvers at two different missile speeds depending on the type of building and its location within the Hurricane Region. The video explains the testing procedures and defines the various building types and hurricane zone risk categories.
