INTRODUCTION This guide is a compilation of standards and construction techniques which have received wide acceptance for the fabrication and installation of ducts designed to convey air and gases, usually contaminated with particulates, fumes, vapors or corrosive aerosols.
SMACNA first published a procedure for leakage testing of so-called medium and high pressure ductwork since January 1965. It appeared in Chapter 10 of the high velocity (later high pressure) construction standards and in Chapter 8 of the "Balancing and Adjustment of Air Distribution Systems Manual"...
