A fire-rated glass floor is a walk-on glazed floor panel, set in a tested support frame, that keeps both its load-bearing capacity and its fire resistance for a stated time. Because a floor carries load, its classification also includes R for load-bearing capacity alongside integrity and insulation.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
Whether the building is in central Cambridge or the wider CB21, CB2, CB3, CB1, CB4, CB5 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Newmarket, Ely, Huntingdon. Peterborough, around 48 km from Cambridge, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
If an existing frame in a Cambridge building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can phase work in Cambridge around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Cambridge budgets are not open-ended.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
Fire-rated glass floors applies to many building types in Cambridge, including industrial units and healthcare buildings.
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
Yes, with clear glass and an anti-slip finish, or obscured if privacy is needed.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
