Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW): what you get in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray

Integrity fire glass, classified E, stops flames and hot gases passing for the rated time but does not limit the heat coming through. EW glass adds a cap on the heat radiated through the glass. Both are thinner, lighter and cheaper than fully insulated glass.

  • Polished wired glass where still appropriate
  • Matched beads and seals
  • Modified toughened integrity glass

What EW adds

EW glass limits radiation to 15 kW/m² measured one metre from the glass, reducing the risk of igniting materials or harming people nearby.

Cost advantage

Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.

Not insulating

E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.

Regulations for Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray projects

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.

Integrity Fire Glass (E & EW) in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and Moray: questions

Is integrity glass allowed on escape routes?

In limited amounts and positions. Building guidance sets the rules; insulating glass is used where those limits are exceeded.

What is integrity-only fire glass?

Glass that stops flames and hot gases for the rated time but lets heat through. It is classified E.

What is the difference between E and EW glass?

EW glass also limits heat radiation through the glass, which reduces the risk to people and materials near it.
