Abstract
There is disclosed herein a casement-style window assembly having a support frame which carries a pivotable sash assembly. The sash assembly has its own frame and carries a pane, usually transparent, therein. Both the frame and sash are constructed of multi-chambered extruded structural plastic members and interior decorative wood members that are arranged to conceal the plastic members from interior view. Weather stripping or insulation is fitted within various chambers. Operator and multi-point lock hardware are mounted to the structural plastic frame. Wooden stops associated with the sash frame cooperate to trap the pane in position and to engage the support frame when the window is closed. The sash frame structural member forms an L-shape which includes an affect member directed to the interior for engaging the support frame. In this construction the window assembly forms a functional unit even with the various wood members removed.
