    This document provides an assessment of the expected service life and performance classification of facade components in accordance with British standards, to assist with estimating the service life of buildings. It lists the estimated reference service life of various facade elements like extruded aluminum profiles, ironmongery, and surface finishes. The document also provides a key to understand the classification of service life and effects of failure. The service life estimates are based on correct maintenance and reference environmental conditions.

    Design Life BS 7543:2015 Table 1


    1 Short Term Shorter life than the building and readily replaceable.
    2 Replaceable Shorter life than the building and replacement can be envisaged at design stage.
    3 Maintainable Last with periodic treatment, for the life of the building.
    4 Lifelong Lasts for the life of the building

    Effects of failure BS 7543:2015 Table 2


    A Danger to life E Costly because repeated
    B Risk of injury F Interruption to building use
    C Danger to health G Security Compromised
    D Costly Repair H No exceptional problems

    Reference
    Service Life to BS7543 reference service life. Based on known life expectancy for a reference set of particular 'in-use'
    conditions collated from publically available sources. Service life expectancy is based on correct maintenance and specific
    environment conditions. The reference environment is external class C3 (urban industrial, coastal low salinity) and internal
    environment Class C1 (normal heated). Note life expectancy of IGU does not include breakages due to nickle sulphide
    inclusions. This document is for guidance on expectations and does not constitute any form of guarantee or warranty but
    does provide valuable information for service life planning.
