Fire-Rated Glass Floors in Tipton: what's included
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.
- Tested walk-on fire-rated glass floor systems
- Horizontal fire-rated rooflights
- Handover evidence
- Anti-slip surface treatments within the system
Key checks for Tipton projects
Load and fire together
A glass floor must carry its design load during the fire period. Only systems tested for both should be used.
Programme
Glass floors are made to order with longer lead times; we plan early with your contractor.
Rooflights
Horizontal glazing in a fire-rated roof or floor behaves differently from a wall, so wall glass cannot simply be laid flat.
