Before you order fire-rated glass floors: what matters
Slip resistance
Walk-on glass needs an anti-slip finish; it must be one covered by the system.
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.
