What's involved with fire-rated glass floors in Borehamwood
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.
- Handover evidence
- Steel support frames to the tested details
- Coordination with the structural engineer
- Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
Key checks for Borehamwood projects
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Programme
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
England regulations that shape the job
