What to check before ordering fire-rated glass floors in Huyton
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.
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
