Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
Load and fire together
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Privacy
Obscured or patterned surfaces can be specified within the system for privacy below.

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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
