Fire-Rated Glass Floors: an overview for Oxfordshire
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.
- Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
- Handover evidence
- Steel support frames to the tested details

Key checks for Oxfordshire 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.
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
