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.
Programme
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Load and fire together
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
