What our fire-rated glass floors service includes in Andover

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 walk-on fire-rated glass floor systems
  • Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
  • Steel support frames to the tested details
  • Handover evidence

Key checks for Andover projects

Sizes are limited

Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.

Programme

Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.

Rooflights

Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.

England Which rules apply?
