Table 14 gives the leakage through a 13 in. brick wall, between the
frame and the brick, the leakage for a plain window not weather-stripped
and the leakage for the same window fitted with a good weather-strip for
various wind velocities.
,
Table 15 gives the leakage in cubic feet per hour per foot of crack per mile wind velocity for a plain frame window and also for a frame window fitted with weather-stripping. The leakage is given for various cracks
