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.
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Yateley, including the GU46, GU47, RG45, GU17, RG40 districts, and in nearby Sandhurst, Crowthorne, Camberley. Yateley lies roughly 63 km from Southampton, within our Hampshire coverage.
If an existing frame in a Yateley building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
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 Yateley, including care homes and public buildings.
