The design elements are grouped into four categories: Exterior-windbreaks, shades, coverings and sun orientation; Frame-insulating frame, opening type, weather strip and hardware; Glazing-multi-glazing, reflective glazing, plastic glazing and glass block; Interior-interior shading, interior coverings, integral lighting and interior mass. The impacts of these design elements are describes in a matrix form and address the following window and building attributes: Airtightness, Water tightness, Natural ventilation, Insulation, Solar admittance, Daylighting, Visual separation, Acoustical isolation, Safety, Access/Egress, Ease of operation, Forced entry resistance, and Durability/Maintenance. The chart is designed for ready reference during the design process. 700 $aHastings$b S. Robert$024328 701 $aDriscoll$b Porter$01390961 701 $aHastings$b S.
