Glass Specifications:

1. Standard certification requirements:

A. Float Glass: ASTM C 1036.

B. Heat Treated Glass: ASTM C1048, with surface stress of 5000psi, +/- 1500psi.

C. Laminated Glass: Two lites of equal thickness bonded with a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer, meeting criteria of ANSI Z97.1-1984 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 for safety glazing.

D. Insulating Glass: CBA rated by the Insulating Glass Certification Council when tested in accordance with ASTM E 773 and E 774. Dual edge seals with silicone secondary seal. Exterior lite is to be heat strengthened; interior lite to be laminated glass.



2. Performance Requirements:

A.Probability of breakage not to exceed 8/1000 for vertical glass and 1/1000 for sloped glass upon first application of design pressures or due to anticipated thermal stresses.



3. Glazing Unit Description: (Select one)

A.Laminated Glass: two ¼" clear, heat strengthened lites with a (.030) (.060) polyvinyl butyral (P.V.B.) interlayer.

B.Insulated laminated glass consisting of a ¼" clear heat strengthened lite, a ½" dual sealed airspace over a laminated lite (thickness to be determined per glass size) with a (.030) (.060) polyvinyl butyral (P.V.B.) interlayer.

C.Insulated laminated glass consisting of a ¼" clear heat strengthened lite, a ½" dual sealed airspace over a laminated lite (thickness to be determined per glass size) with a (.030) (.060) polyvinyl butyral (P.V.B) interlayer. A LOF Energy Advantage pyrolytic low-e coating is applied to surface #2 (Coating will be applied to surface #3 with tinted glass).

D.Insulated laminated glass consisting of a ¼" clear heat strengthened lite, a ½" dual sealed airspace over a laminated lite (thickness to be determined per glass size) with a (.030) (.060) polyvinyl butyral (P.V.B.) interlayer. A PPG Solarban 60 low-e coating is applied to surface #2.
