Acknowledgement
It is with immense pleasure that I am presenting my seminar on “Doors & Windows”
At the outset I would like to pay my respect and profound gratitude to Prof. M.V.Gunjal
and the other staff members for their timely advice and expert counsel, without this seminar
would have been devoid of its richness. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Head of
department of Civil Engineering Prof. T. K. Nagaraj who has been kind enough to grant me
permission to present this seminar
Lastly I would like to thanks to all teaching and non teaching staff and my friends without
whose worthwhile support this work would not have been possible.

IntroductionAny item that gets pushed, pulled and slammed as much as windows and doors in a typical Indian home is likely to take a beating over time. And even the highest quality items that get beaten on a regular basis are bound to require some maintenance and upkeep from time to time. A useful first step in window and door maintenance is to become more familiar with the common terms used to describe windows and doors and their various parts.
"...And even the highest quality items that get beaten on a regular basis are bound to require some
maintenance and upkeep from time to time...”
There are two main types of windows – those that open, referred to as “operable windows”, and
those that do not open, referred to as “fixed windows”. Your unit may have different types of
operable windows, such as awning, casement, hopper, horizontal slider, or tilt and turn windows.
The opening part of operable windows is often referred to as a “sash” or “vent”. The window
frames can be made of wood, metal or vinyl. The transparent portion of the window is typically
referred to as the “glazing”.
Exterior doors generally come in two varieties: hinged or sliding (such as sliding patio doors).
Exterior doors are generally made of metal or wood. Sliding patio doorframes are usually made of
metal or vinyl, and resemble a large horizontal sliding window.
"...Exterior doors generally come in two varieties: hinged or sliding ..."
Operable windows and exterior doors share similar methods of providing an air and weather seal,
or what is commonly referred to as weather-stripping.
