What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Hertford
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.
Sizes are limited
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
