“Designing Safer Glass Railings with Laminated Glass”

1 AIA LU with HSW

Incidents of falling lass from exterior balcony railings in high-rise condominiums have resulted in new standards and building code requirements that address post-breakage performance of glass.  While tempered glass is an approved safety glazing, it does not provide glass to provide safety from falling glass.  This presentation will examine the safety concerns around glass in railing systems and the new building code requirements that address the use of these systems.
