Glass in building - Thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass - Part 1: Definition and description

This European Standard specifies tolerances, flatness, edgework, fragmentation and physical and mechanical characteristics of monolithic flat thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass for use in buildings.
Information on curved thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass is given in Annex A, but this product does not form part of this European Standard.
Other requirements, not specified in this European Standard, can apply to thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass which is incorporated into assemblies, e.g. laminated glass or insulating units, or undergo an additional treatment, e.g. coating.  The additional requirements are specified in the appropriate product standard.  Thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass, in this case, does not lose its mechanical or thermal characteristics.

Glas im Bauwesen - Thermisch vorgespanntes Erdalkali-Silicat-Einscheibensicherheitsglas - Teil 1: Definition und Beschreibung

6
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Toleranzen, Geradheit, Kantenbearbeitung, das Bruchverhalten und
physikalische und mechanische Eigenschaften von einscheibigem, flachem, thermisch vorgespanntem
Erdalkali-Silicat-Einscheibensicherheitsglas für die Verwendung im Bauwesen fest.
Gebogenes thermisch vorgespanntes Erdalkali-Silicat-Einscheibensicherheitsglas ist im Anhang A erwähnt,
aber nicht Bestandteil dieser Europäischen Norm.
An thermisch vorgespannte Erdalkali-Silicat-Einscheibensicherheitsgläser können andere Anforderungen, die in
dieser Europäischen Norm nicht beschrieben sind, gestellt werden, wenn sie Bestandteil sind von Kombinationen
wie z. B. Verbundglas, Isolierglas oder wenn sie weiterverarbeitet werden, z. B. beschichtet. Die zusätzlichen
Anforde-rungen sind festgelegt in den entsprechenden Normen der Fertigprodukte. In diesem Fall wird thermisch
vorgespanntes Erdalkali-Silicat-Einscheibensicherheitsglas seine mechanischen und/oder thermischen Eigen-schaften
nicht verlieren.

Verre dans la construction - Verre de silicate alcalino-terreux de sécurité trempé thermiquement - Partie 1 : Définition et description

Le présent document spécifie les tolérances, la planéité, la finition des chants, la fragmentation et les
caractéristiques physiques et mécaniques du verre plat monolithique de silicate alcalino-terreux de sécurité
trempé thermiquement et destiné a etre utilisé dans la construction.
L'Annexe A fournit des informations relatives au verre bombé de silicate alcalino-terreux de sécurité trempé
thermiquement, mais ce produit n?est pas traité dans le présent document.
D'autres exigences, non spécifiées dans le présent document, peuvent s'appliquer au verre de silicate alcalino-terreux
de sécurité trempé thermiquement et intégré dans des ensembles, par exemple du verre feuilleté ou des
vitrages isolants, ou soumis a un traitement supplémentaire, par exemple un dépôt de couche. Ces exigences
additionnelles sont spécifiées dans la norme de produit correspondante. Dans ces cas, le verre de silicate
alcalino-terreux de sécurité trempé thermiquement ne perd pas ses caractéristiques mécaniques ou thermiques.

Introduction
Thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass has a safer breakage behaviour when compared with
annealed glass. When it should be used to offer protection under accidental human impact, thermally toughened
alkaline earth silicate safety glass also should be classified according to EN 12600.
NOTE CEN/TC129/WG8 is producing standards for the determination of the design strength of glass and is preparing
a design method.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies tolerances, flatness, edgework, fragmentation and physical and mechanical
characteristics of monolithic flat thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass for use in buildings.
Information on curved thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass is given in Annex A, but this product
does not form part of this European Standard.
Other requirements, not specified in this European Standard, can apply to thermally toughened alkaline earth
silicate safety glass which is incorporated into assemblies, e.g. laminated glass or insulating units, or undergo an
additional treatment, e.g. coating. The additional requirements are specified in the appropriate product standard.
Thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass, in this case, does not lose its mechanical or thermal
characteristics.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass
glass within which a permanent surface compressive stress has been induced by a controlled heating and
cooling process in order to give it greatly increased resistance to mechanical and thermal stress and
prescribed fragmentation characteristics
3.2
flat thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass
thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass that has not been deliberately given a specific profile
during manufacture
3.3
enamelled thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass
thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass which has a ceramic frit fired into the surface during
the toughening process. After toughening the ceramic frit becomes an integral part of the glass
NOTE In the UK, this glass is also known as opaque thermally toughened alkaline earth silicate safety glass.
3.4
horizontal toughening
process in which the glass is supported on horizontal rollers
