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

Scotland rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Fire glazing rules in Scotland
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

FAQs for Paisley
What does REI mean?
R is load-bearing capacity, E is integrity and I is insulation. A floor needs R because it carries people and loads.
How big can a fire-rated glass floor panel be?
Each system sets maximum panel sizes; larger areas are divided by a supporting grid.
Can you price fire-rated glass floors in Paisley from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Paisley?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
