What's involved with fire-rated glass floors in Chorley
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
- Handover evidence
- Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
- Coordination with the structural engineer
What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Chorley
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
Sizes are limited
Tested floor panels have maximum spans. Larger openings are divided by a supporting grid.
England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
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.
