This specification establishes requirements for rigid poly(vinyl chloride) siding with integral foam plastic backing. The poly(vinyl chloride) compound shall be extruded into siding and compounded so as to provide heat stability and weather exposure stability. Tests shall be performed on the vinyl siding, exclusive of any backing material, to determine compliance with length and width, thickness, camber, heat shrinkage, impact resistance, coefficient of linear expansion, gloss, color, and color uniformity requirements. The backed vinyl siding with the backing material shall also undergo testing to ascertain conformance to the following requirements: surface distortion, weatherability, windload resistance, and nail slot allowance for thermal expansion.
