BS 6262-3:2005 PDF

1   Scope This part of BS 6262 gives information and recommendations for vertical glazing in the external walls and interiors of buildings, with respect to fire safety, security and wind loading. These recommendations apply only when the glass is installed in a glazing system specifically designed for the purpose. These recommendations do not apply to:

a) patent glazing (see BS 5516‑1):

b) glass in non-vertical applications (see BS 5516‑2)

c) glazing for commercial greenhouses (see BS 5502‑21);

d) glazing for domestic greenhouses.

Requirements for standards of workmanship for glazing have been published separately as BS 8000‑7 and, therefore, this subject is not dealt with in this standard.
