This European Standard assigns sound insulation values to all transparent, translucent and opaque glass products, described in the European Standards for basic, special basic or processed glass products, when intended to be used in glazed assemblies in buildings, and which exhibit properties of acoustic protection, either as a prime intention or as a supplementary characteristic.
This document outlines the procedure, by which glass products may be rated, according to their acoustic performance which enables assessment of compliance with the acoustic requirements of buildings.
Rigorous technical analysis of measurement data remains an option, but this standard is intended to enable the derivation of simpler indices of performance, which can be adopted with confidence by non-specialists.
By adopting the principles of this standard the formulation of acoustic requirements in Building Codes and for product specification to satisfy particular needs for glazing is simplified.
It is recognised that the acoustic test procedures contained within EN ISO 140-1 and EN ISO 140-3 relate only to glass panes and their combinations. Although the same principles should be followed as closely as possible, it is inevitable that some compromises are necessary, because of the bulkier construction of other glazing types, e.g. glass blocks, paver units, channel-shaped glass, structural glazing and structural sealant glazing. Guidelines on how to adapt the test procedures for these glazing types are offered in Clause 4.
All the considerations of this standard relate to panes of glass/glazing alone. Incorporation of them into windows may cause changes in acoustic performance as a result of other influences, e.g. frame design, frame material, glazing material/method, mounting method, air tightness, etc. Measurements of the sound insulation of complete windows (glass and frame) may be undertaken to resolve such issues.

This document gives a method of determining the design value of the bending strength of glass. It gives:the general method of calculation, and guidance for lateral load resistance of linearly supported glazed elements used as infill panels
NOTE Examples of lateral loads are wind loads, snow loads, self weight of sloping glass, and cavity pressure variations on insulating glass units.
This document gives recommended values for the following factors for glass as a material:
- material partial factors, M;A and M;v ;
- factors for the load duration, kmod ;
- factor for stressed edges, ke.
Most glass in buildings is used as infill panels. This document covers those infill panels that are in a class of consequence lower than those covered in EN 1990, so proposed values for the partial load factors, yQ and yG, are given for these infill panels.
The action of cavity pressure variations on insulating glass units is not covered by Eurocodes, so this document also gives proposed values of partial factors, 0, 1 and 2, for this action.
This document does not determine suitability for purpose. Resistance to lateral loads is only one part of the design process, which could also need to take into account:
- in-plane loading, buckling, lateral torsional buckling, and shear forces,
- environmental factors (e.g. sound insulation, thermal properties),
- safety characteristics (e.g. fire performance, mode of breakage in relation to human safety, security).
This document does not apply to channel shaped glass, glass blocks and pavers, or vacuum insulated glass units.

This document specifies a test method for determining the mechanical viscoelastic properties of interlayer materials. The interlayers under examination are those used in the production of laminated glass and/or laminated safety glass. The interlayer viscoelastic properties are needed in order to determine the load resistance of laminated glass.
From the tensile modulus in particular conditions of temperature and load duration, an interlayer can be placed into a family that relates to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient. This value can be used in the simplified calculation method described in EN 16612.
Informative Annex D explains the background to the determination of families relating to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient.

From the tensile modulus in particular conditions of temperature and load duration, an interlayer can be placed into a family that relates to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient, . This value can be used in the simplified calculation method described in prEN 16612 [1].
An informative annex explains the background to the determination of families relating to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient.

This document specifies requirements and a test method for security glazing designed to resist impacts of a hard body by delaying access of objects and/or persons to a protected space for a short period of time. It also classifies security-glazing products into categories of resistance to repetitive impacts of a steel sphere. In this document, the categories of resistance have not been assigned to special applications. It is intended that the glazing classification be specified on an individual basis for every application and anticipated action of force upon the glazing. This document deals with mechanical resistance to impact only. NOTE Other properties can also be important.

1.1 This document determines resistance of security glazing products to natural threats characterized by simulated destructive-windstorm events. 1.2 The test method determines the performance of security-glazing for use in fenestration assemblies under conditions representative of events that occur in severe, destructive-windstorm environments using simulated missile impact(s) followed by the application of cyclic static-pressure differentials. 1.3 A missile-propulsion device, an air pressure system and a test chamber are used to model some conditions that can be representative of windborne debris and pressures in a windstorm environment. 1.4 The performance determined by this test method relates to the ability of glazing in the building envelope to remain without openings during a windstorm.

This European Standard gives a method of determining the design value of the bending strength of glass. It gives:
- the general method of calculation, and
- guidance for lateral load resistance of linearly supported glazed elements used as infill panels;
NOTE Examples of lateral loads are wind loads and snow loads and self weight of sloping glass and climatic loads on insulating glass units.
This standard gives recommended values for the following factors for glass as a material:
- material partial factors, γM;A and γM;v ;
- factors for the load duration, kmod ;
- partial factor for actions, γG , γQ , and ψ ;
- factor for stressed edges, ke.
Most glass in buildings is used as infill panels. Infill panels are in a class of consequence lower than those covered in EN 1990, so proposed values for the partial load factors, γQ and γG, are given for infill panels.
The action of climatic loads on insulating glass units is not covered by Eurocodes, so this document also gives proposed values of partial factors, ψ0, ψ1 and ψ2, for this action.
This European Standard does not determine suitability for purpose. Resistance to lateral loads is only one part of the design process, which may also need to take into account, for example:
- in-plane loading, buckling, lateral torsional buckling, and shear forces
- environmental factors (e.g. sound insulation, thermal properties),
- safety characteristics which cannot be calculated (e.g. fire performance, breakage characteristics in relation to human safety, security, containment).
This European Standard does not apply to channel shaped glass.
