Glazing for buildings – Code of practice for special applications
| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| BSI | 2005 | 26 |
This part of BS 6262 gives information and recommendations for vertical glazing in the external walls and interiors of buildings, with respect to:
-
structural sealant glazing;
-
bolt fixed structural glazing;
-
frameless doors and entrances;
-
mirrors.
-
Bolt fixed structural glazing with countersunk holes is not specifically covered.
NOTE some guidance is also given on non-vertical use of mirrors.
These recommendations do not apply to:
-
patent glazing (see BS 5516-1);
-
glass in non-vertical applications (see BS 5516-2);
-
glazing for furniture and fittings (see BS 7376 and BS 7449);
-
glazing for commercial greenhouses (see BS 5502-21);
-
glazing for domestic greenhouses.
Requirements for standards of workmanship for the application of sealants have been published separately as BS 8000-16, and therefore this subject is not dealt with in this standard.
