Duct construction Standards MetaI and fexibIe Second Edition. Duct sealing requirements apply to duct connections to equipment and to apparatus. Seams are defined as joining of two longitudinally (in the direction of airflow) oriented edges of duct surface material occurring between two joints.

TABLE 1-2 STANDARD DUCT SEALING REQUIREMENTS SEAL CLASS SeaIing Requirements AppIicabIe Static Pressure Construction CIass A Class A: All Transverse joints, longitudinal seams, and duct wall penetrations 4 wg and up (1000 Pa) B Class B: All Transverse joints and longitudinal seams only 3 wg (750 Pa) C Class C: Transverse joints only 2 wg (500 Pa) ln addition to the above, any variable air volume system duct of 1 (250 Pa) and 1/2 wg (125 Pa) construction class that is upstream of the VAV boxes shall meet Seal Class C. field-erected plenums and casings through which air leakage would occur or the use of continuous welds. b. the prudent selection and application of seal- ing methods by fabricators and installers, giving due consideration to the designated pressure class, pressure mode (positive or negative), chemical compatibility of the clo- sure system, potential movement of mating parts, workmanship, amount and type of handling, cleanliness of surfaces, product shelf life, curing time, and manufacturer- identified exposure limitations. c. that these provisions apply to duct connec- tions to equipment and to apparatus but are not for equipment and apparatus. d. that where distinctions are made between seams and joints, a seam is defined as joining of two longitudinally (in the direction of air- flow) oriented edges of duct surface material occurring between two joints. Helical (spi- ral) lock seams are exempt from sealant re- quirements. All other duct wall connections are deemed to be joints. Joints include but are not limited to girth joints, branch and subbranch intersections, so-called duct col- lar tap-ins, fitting subsections, louver and air terminal connections to ducts, access door and access panel frames and jambs, and duct, plenum, and casing abutments to building structures. e. unless otherwise specified by the designer, that sealing requirements do not contain pro- visions to: 1. resist chemical attack; 2. be dielectrically isolated; 3. be waterproof, weatherproof, or ultra- violet ray resistant; 4. withstand temperatures higher than 120F (48C) or lower than 40F (4.4C); 5. contain atomic radiation or serve in oth- er safety-related construction; 6. be electrically grounded; 7. maintain leakage integrity at pressures in excess of their duct classification; 8. be underground below the water table; 9. be submerged in liquid; 10. withstand continuous vibration visible to the naked eye; 11. be totally leakfree within an encapsulat- ing vapor barrier; and 12. create closure in portions of the building structure used as ducts, such as ceiling plenums, shafts, or pressurized compart- ments;
