Updated Laminated Glass and Toughened Glass leaflets launched

Revised Laminated Glass: Safety and Security and Toughened Glass: Safety and Strength leaflets are now available to download free from the GGF website and to purchase on the GGF Shop.

These newly revised consumer leaflets are designed to give homeowners basic knowledge of the glass installed in their homes.

Each gives details of why and where, respectively, toughened and laminated glass will be installed.

Many queries to the GGF are from homeowners requesting information on how to ascertain what glass is installed in their home.  These leaflets give examples of markings to look for and what information the markings should contain. This information allows the homeowners to check new and existing glazing for compliance to Building Regulations and EN Product Standards for Thermally Treated Glasses.

The most recent amendments were focused on simplifying the information already provided by making the wording less technical, giving example markings, as well as updating the references to the newest versions.

Both the Laminated Glass and Toughened Glass leaflets will be regularly used by the GGF to send consumers the information they require.

They will also be of great benefit to GGF Members who can distribute them to their customers, which in turn continues to promote the Federation and its Members.

Laminated Glass: Safety and Security

This trifold leaflet explains what laminated glass/laminated safety glass is and covers the main types of laminated glass as well as special laminates.

Other areas included are appearance, marking, availability and a list of reasons why customers should choose laminated glass with a guide to the levels of protection laminated glass offers.

It is a popular and useful leaflet for all laminated glass suppliers.

Toughened Glass: Safety and Strength

This handy leaflet explains what toughened glass is and highlights its flexibility for many glazing solutions and systems.

The publication also outlines the mandatory (critical) safety glazing areas where safety glazing materials such as toughened glass must be used by law, in new and replacement glazing applications in all buildings.

In addition the leaflet covers the extensive range of toughened glass and other thermally treated glass as well as process restrictions.

If you manufacture, supply or install toughened glass this is a very useful leaflet to provide to your customers.

The company prides itself on providing the complete service to those who require it: from creating detailed scale plans through site and building work management, to installation and high-quality finishing, Okehampton Glass can oversee the job from start to finish. Using only full-time fitters working exclusively for Okehampton Glass, our quality control is never compromised by ill-advised cost cutting or the use of contract labour.

We offer a free, no obligation quotation service and are happy to discuss any ideas you may have in home improvement, but we are equally experienced in liasing with architects, designers, builders and other craftsmen, helping the team achieve its objectives on time and to budget.

Glass in building

The GGF Technical Department in conjunction with the GGF Standards Committee has issued a status report relating to the revision of the Harmonized European Standards (hens) to comply with the Construction Products Regulation (CPR).

With the publication of the CPR the European Commission has requested that the CEN Technical Committees examine their hENs to ensure that they are compliant with the new legislation.

The major work revolves around converting the Annex ZA’s. New Annex ZA’s needed to cover the following:

  1. Replace “Declaration of Conformity”(DoC) with the “Declaration of Performance” (DoP)
  2. Change “System of Attestation of Conformity” to the new “Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance” (AVCP)
  3. With the DoP there is nothing to cover “durability”. Therefore there was a need to define another “Essential Characteristic/Works Characteristic’ that could then be included in the DoP

At the same time, the Commission asked that there be changes in the manner that the hEN’s are drafted. Also, they altered the system of consultants. This system is under the control of Ernest and Young. The new Harmonised Standards (HAS) consultants have been employed to operate this new system. When a draft harmonized standard is ready for assessment it is referred to Ernest and Young who pass it onto one of the consultants. There are only FOUR consultants covering all of the standards under the CPR.
{none of the four CPR consultants has a background in glass}

WHERE WE ARE

Published standards awaiting Citation in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU)

The following “product standards” have been published and sent for official citation:

  • hEN 1096 – 4: Glass in building – Coated glass – Part 4: Product standard
  • hEN 1279 – 4: Glass in building – Insulating glass units – Part 5: Product standard

According to CEN our two standards were part of a package of seven to be cited.

The initial expectation within CEN and the technical committee (CEN TC129) was they would go through the citation process during Autumn 2018 that then became the end of 2018. The latest information is the end of the first quarter of 2019. However, there is nothing yet to confirm this timescale.

Standards going through HAS

All of these standards have failed assessment prior to the citation:

  • EN 12150 – 2 Glass in building – Thermally toughened soda lime silicate safety glass – Part 2: Product standard
  • EN 13024 – 2 Glass in building – Thermally toughened borosilicate safety glass – Part 2: Product standard
  • EN 14179 – 2 Glass in building – Heat soaked thermally toughened soda lime silicate safety glass – Part 2: Product standard
  • EN -16477 – 2 Glass in building – Painted glass for internal use – Part 2: Product standard

These standards have failed an assessment at ‘enquiry stage’

  • prEN 17257 – 2 Glass in building – Acid etched glass – Part 2: Product standard
  • prEN 17258 – 2 Glass in building – Sandblasted glass – Part 2: Product standard

The problem with the new consultants is their lack of knowledge on glass products and their insistence that what we stated in our “answer to the mandate” is cast in concrete.

{They are expecting the standard to use exactly the words proposed within the “answer to the mandate” whilst there was nothing stated by the Commission on this topic}

{As far as the specification writers are concerned the “Title and Scope” of the standard are only finally decided when the content is finalized.}

Problems

Our main difficulties are as follows:

  1. The time delay between publication of the “Part 1” and the associated product standard, i.e. the “Part 2”. This is, at present, for EN 14179 a delay of three years.

For example:
{EN 14179 – 1: 2016  Glass in building – Heat soaked thermally toughened soda lime silicate safety glass – Part 1: Definition and description include a revised “heat soaking process”. This cannot be used until EN 14179 – 2: Glass in building – Heat soaked thermally toughened soda lime silicate safety glass – Part 2: Product standard has been cited.}

{The EN 14179 – Part 1 referenced within the existing Part 2, 2005 is as a dated reference, i.e. 2005, and this is the version that MUST be followed.}

  1. The commission has also decided to change the layout of the hEN’s. These changes have been informed to the consultants but not to the technical specification/standards writers.

These are some examples:

  1. All normative references are to be dated references
  2. Certain clause titles, for example, Requirements, are no longer permitted
  3. The Annex ZA needs to be modified. The version that the consultant’s reference is not the one that the specification writers are aware of.
  4. Add a definition of “Durability” and then add it to the list of essential characteristics. Develop a methodology for all product groups that are sufficiently robust to ensure acceptance by the European Commission.

WHAT NEXT?

HAS Assessments

In order to move the harmonized European standards, that have received ‘negative assessments’, forward the management working group of CEN TC129 has agreed the following:

  • Arrange meeting(s) with the HAS consultant(s) to educate them on glass and subsequently agree on how to modify the existing text.
  • Undertake the development of an updated answer to the mandate. This will cover all of the product groups and will be based on the 2016/17 version that has recently received commission acceptance.
  • Completely redraft the standard and then send it to the CEN process. Hopefully, this will only require a new formal vote.

With respect to the two standards that were assessed at the enquiry stage the following has been agreed:

  • CEN will contact the consultant who did the assessment and request that he checks his findings against the recently accepted 2016/17 answer to mandate.
  • The applicable working group will when considering the comments from the public enquiry also incorporate into the draft, for a formal vote, the assessment suggestions.

Timing

Develop, an agreement, with CEN and the Commission that will ensure that the Part 1’s and 2’s, i.e. part dealing with the technical detail related to the product and the harmonized product standard part, are published together.

This article will hopefully inform the industry about the present situation.

The future work of CEN TC129: Glass in building will continue to produce new and also revise existing standards that are covered by the official Commission Mandate (M135) Glass in building.

Future work will also include modifications to the appropriate standards that will be necessary to cover the environmental topic “release of dangerous substances to indoor air”.

Fire Resistant Glass FAQ

 

Q1. Where must fire-resistant glass be used?

Fire-resistant glass is normally used to prevent fire spread and to provide a safe escape route and safe access for fire-fighters. The national documents providing guidance on how to meet Building Regulations (e.g. Approved Document B for England and Wales) show where fire-resistant barriers are required. If an alternative approach has been taken to demonstrate compliance with Building Regulations, such as a fire safety engineering design study, then the applications for fire-resistant glass must be specified in the appropriate design report.

 

Q2. When must the glass be integrity-only and when must it have insulation performance?

The areas of application for integrity-only or integrity and insulation performance are given in the appropriate guidance to the Regulations, or in the appropriate design report if the building is subject to a fire safety engineering study.

 

Q3. How can it be ensured that the specified system is appropriate for the application?

The specified glazed system must have appropriate evidence of performance based on appropriate test information. This evidence may be provided either in a test report, or in an assessment report or by third party certification. The test evidence that is provided must be appropriate to both the application and the specific glazed system that is to be installed.

 

Q4. Is it possible to obtain a fire certificate for installed fire-resistant glass products?

Fire certificates are provided by the Fire Service to approve certain premises and are not applicable to individual products, systems, assemblies or installations. Under new Regulations, fire certificates are to be phased out during 2006 and replaced by making the Responsible Person, i.e. the building or business owner, responsible for ensuring that appropriate fire precautions and safety measures are in place. Product certificates may be referred to in the context of third-party certification schemes, but these are voluntary and not obligatory. The appropriate evidence of performance for a fire-resistant glazed system is normally a test or an assessment report, which must be provided by the supplier on request.

 

Q5. Why can’t toughened glass be used for fire-resistant applications?

Standard toughened glass is not able to withstand the thermal shock generatedduring a fire and it must not be used where fire-resistant barriers are required. There are a number of specially modified toughened soda-lime glass types available for fire-resistant applications in very specific framing systems, or special glass compositions such as toughened borosilicates that can be used, but both types are strictly subject to manufacturers’ specific guidance on their use.

 

Q6. Can it be assumed that a fire-resistant glass successfully tested in single glazing will give the same performance in an IGU?

Never make assumptions. In all cases appropriate proof of performance must beavailable related to appropriate test evidence.

 

Q7. What is the biggest pane size that can be used?

The pane size will vary according to the glass and framing system, always subject tothe availability of appropriate test evidence. In every case, contact the glass manufacturer or supplier for the maximum glass sizes tested and the associated framing system details

 

Q8. What edge cover should I use when glazing fire-resistant glass?

Different glass types will require different amounts of edge cover according to theirindividual requirements. Manufacturers/suppliers will provide appropriate guidance, which must be followed. Modified toughened soda-lime glasses are particularly sensitive to edge cover which is generally a maximum of 10mm cover. If the edge cover is too great for this type of glass then premature failure is far more likely.

 

Q9. When glazing must I allow for expansion of the fire-resistant glass?

Normal glazing codes of practice must be followed. Glass in any application mustnever be glazed tightly. Expansion allowances can be especially critical for modified toughened soda-lime glass types. The glass manufacturer/supplier will define expansion allowance required.

 

Q10. Can PVB laminated glass be used for fire-resistant applications, as it is a safety glass?

PVB laminated safety glass does not have any fire-resistant properties and it must not be used in fire-resistant applications. Safety glass types with fire-resistant properties are available, based upon special inter-layers.

 

Q11. Can the maximum pane size be increased beyond what was tested?

Only limited increases in tested pane sizes are allowed, according to assessment. The evidence provided by the glass manufacturer/supplier will provide the maximum pane size allowed for each particular system.

 

Q12. Can the pane height be increased while reducing the width, keeping the same area?

This is only possible if there is test evidence that the modified dimension meets thefire-resistance performance. Details will be made available by the glass manufacturer/supplier.

 

Q13. What size and shape of glazing bead can be used?

This information can only be identified by reference to the approved glazing systems, and the size of bead will vary according to the glass and system chosen.

 

Q14. Can the tested gasket or seal be exchanged for an alternative?

This may be possible but only if the alternative has documented evidence showing that it can be used with the glass and framing system. If this evidence is not available, contact the gasket or seal supplier for confirmation of acceptability.

 

Q15. What glazing seals must be used?

The glazing seal has to be appropriate for the chosen system based on test evidence. Standard glazing seals must not be used for fire-resistant glazing.

 

Q16. How big a piece of glass can be installed into a timber fire door leaf?

This depends on the door leaf being used, as each door manufacturer will have tested different sizes of glass with their door leaf types. Maximum glass size can also depend on the glazing system being used in the door. The test or assessment information for the specific door leaf and glazed system will dictate the allowable maximum glass size and glass aspect ratio. It should be noted, that great care needs to be taken when cutting apertures into door leaves because this can adversely affect the fire-resistance performance of the door and this must only be done according to the door manufacturer’s guidance and instruction. Impact safety may also limit maximum glass size: if the glass has a class C impact safety rating then glazed door panels are limited to a maximum of 900mm.

 

Q17. What shapes of vision panel can be used in a timber door leaf?

Various shapes are possible but the types and sizes will depend upon the evidence available for the door leaf and the glazing system. If the evidence is unavailable for the required shape, then the shape must not be used. It should be noted that great care needs to be taken when cutting apertures into door leaves because this can adversely affect the fire-resistance performance of the door.

 

Q18. What happens if a different species of timber is used?

Different timbers have different burning characteristics and can influence the performance of the door or framing system. An alternative timber should not be used unless there is appropriate fire test evidence.

 

Q19. What is the minimum frame section that may be used in a timber glazed system?

The minimum section will be the size that can be demonstrated to work with the chosen fire-resistant glass. This can be identified by reference to fire test report. Contact the glass manufacturer/supplier for the appropriate information.

 

Q20. Can square timber beads be used for fire-resistant glazing?

Yes, in certain cases. For insulation glass types, in particular, square beads present few problems but integrity-only glass types require more detailed consideration as transferred heat can lead to bead ignition on the protected face. Partial insulation glass types may also allow the use of square beads, subject to appropriate evidence of performance based on tests.

 

Q21. Can fire-resistant glass be installed into metal frames?

Steel and aluminium framing systems may be used but only if the frame is specifically designed as part of an approved fire-resistant glazed system. Standard steel or aluminium framing systems are not suitable for fire-resistant applications.

 

Q22. Can fire-resistant glass be installed into frameless systems?

Yes, by using specialist glass and glazing systems that have the appropriate fire test evidence. Contact the glass manufacturer/supplier for the appropriate information.

 

Q23. Is it possible to have glass supplied for installers to fit within their own frames?

All glass types are available on a supply-only basis but it must always be fitted into a frame that has the appropriate test evidence, using the glazing seals and bead types that are approved for that particular glazed system. Competent persons who have the relevant specialist knowledge must always carry out the installation of the glazed system, according to the construction and components given in the accompanying evidence of performance. Fire-resistant glass must only be used as part of an appropriately approved glazed system.

 

Q24. The glass in an existing aperture must be replaced, can a suitable glass be supplied?

All fire resistant glass types may be used in refurbishment glazing but the glass and seals must be replaced on a like-for –like basis in the existing frame according to the original evidence of performance provided for the particular glazed as installed. When carrying out any replacement glazing, the frame must be checked to ensure that it is in a suitable condition for re-glazing to be carried out. In all cases, the replacement must be and approved fire-resistant glazed system with appropriate evidence of performance, and the performance rating of that system must be appropriate to the latest guidelines, for example as given in the latest version of Approved Document B (England and Wales). If there is any uncertainty about any of the components that have to be replaced, or uncertainty about the performance rating that is required, then expert guidance must be sought from a member of the GGF’s Fire Resistant Glazing Group.

Glass and Glazing Federation on display at SCTX 2018

The GGF once again provided a strong presence for the glass and glazing industry at Security and Counter Terror Expo, part of UK Security Week, which took place this year from 6-7 March at Olympia London.

Over the two days of SCTX 2018 more than 10,000 visitors passed through the expo including architects, building managers, designers and specifiers. They were there to take part in the UK’s leading national security event – a showcase of the capabilities, strategies and intelligence to keep nations, infrastructure, business and people safe.

GGF Technical Officer Michael Sulston was present on the GGF stand and was kept busy with many enquiries related to safety and security in glass and glazing.

As well as providing expert technical advice on toughened glass,  laminated glass, window film and more, the GGF distributed relevant publications and leaflets – and of course free copies of the GGF Safety and Security Glazing Good Practice Guide to the lucky first 10 visitors to the GGF stand each day.

Security and Counter Terror Expo continues to be an important date for the GGF, giving the Federation an opportunity to represent its Members to a range of industry sectors and to promote best practice in glass and glazing for safety and security.

Next week the GGF continues its busy events calendar by hosting the UK Pavilion at Fensterbau Frontale 2018 in Nuremberg, Germany.

Properties of heat-strengthened glass

Heat strengthened glass is less liable to breakages

Mechanical Strength

In general the strength can be increased to as much as one and a half times that of the equivalent thickness of annealed glass. However, the heat strengthening process does not affect the modulus of elasticity of the product and care should be taken to limit excess deflection.

Thermal Strength

It offers greatly increased resistance to both sudden temperature changes and temperature differentials up to 100K compared with annealed glass, up to 40K. The stress characteristics of toughened safety glass, of normal soda-lime silica composition, are unchanged for continuing service up to 200°C

Fragmentation

In the event of breakage heat strengthened glass breaks in manner similar to annealed glass.

Heat strengthened glass Performance under accidental human impact

Heat strengthened glass due to its breakage behaviour can not be classified according to EN 12600; for its pendulum impact performance. This product should not be used in critical locations (see BS 6262-4:2005)

Thermally treated glass – Processing restrictions

The characteristics of toughened and heat strengthened glass preclude any cutting or processing after manufacture. All holes and shapes must, therefore, be specified before ordering.
