| 1) low-e glass is used in insulated units where the film is placed on: 2) what is a more effective fab. method than this ^? *see ch12 or p28-20 for a few more energy efficient glazing types such as electrochromic glazing | 1) the int. surface of the inside lite to reflect bldg heat back to inside before crossing the air gap 2) suspending a thin layer of film in the center of air gap, creating 2 air spaces; more efficient than coating on glass |
| 1-4) in add. to wire glass, what are the oth. types of fire-rated glazing? | 1) clear ceramic glass w/ 3hr rating but not safety glass 2) tempered fire-protective glass w/ 30min rating & is safety glass 3) 2 or 3 layers of tempered glass w/ clear polymer gel btwn, w/ 30/60/90min ratings 4) glass block, but needs local testing & AHJ approval |
| 1) Fig 28.17 explanation of wndw installation of glass in framing 2) in all glazing installations, glass should be placed on semirigid setting blocks of neoprene or oth elastomeric mat. b/c: 3) why is the "bite" & "face" dim on a wndw frame important? | 2) it prevents direct contact btwn the glass & frame & allow both to expand, contract, & move w/out putting excessive stress on the glass 3) b/c glass is subject to wind loading & deflects, effectively pulling out of the frame |
| 1) specifically, why is the "bite" dimension on a wndw frame important? Fig28.17b 2) the acrylic foam structural glazing tape is | 1) it must be sufficiently deep to hold glass in place 2) a 2 sided, pressure-sensitive, closed-cell acrylic foam used to bind a wid variety of dissimilar mat.'s; it's a foam tape to attach glass to framing |
| 1) the req.'d thkns of ext. glass depends on: 2) for glass used in fire-resistance rated partitions, IBC differentiates btwn: | 1) the size of the glazed unit & wind loading, tables in bldg codes give min thkns & max areas based on float glass w/ factor adjustments off this base for oth types 2) fire-protection-rated glazing & fire-resistance-rated glazing |
