Test on watertightness performance means that under the action of stable pressure difference or fluctuating pressure difference, water is sprayed to the outdoor side of the specimen at the same time to measure the ability of the specimen not to leak water. Test on wind load resistance performance is to measure the ability of the specimen not to distort allowable distortion value under the action of characteristic value of wind load and the ability of the specimen to resist damage and dysfunction under the action of design value of wind load.
