Overview
Windows are major components of buildings allowing for transmission of light, providing view for the occupants and giving a pleasing facade. However, poorly designed and installed windows pose a problem of water seepage. As aluminium frame windows are commonly used in the local industry, the “Good Industry Practices – Aluminium Window” was developed to share with the industry good work practices adopted by practitioners and contractors who have consistently delivered high quality work.
This Good Industry Practices highlights the benefits and practical tips on how quality fabrication and site installation can be achieved.
