Design of glass structures - Part 4: Glass selection relating to the risk of human injury - Guidance for specification
(1) This document provides guidance for the development or improvement of rules deemed to help with the choosing of appropriate glazing for protection against injuries and falling, hereafter called "the Specifications". The Specifications to be written or revised can be a national regulation, a national standard, recommendations from a professional association, requirements for a particular project, etc.
(2) This document deals with the choice of the mode of breakage (see 5.2) with regard to the safety of people against:
- the risk of injury in the event of a collision with a glazed element, e.g. a partition,
- the risk of falling through or over a glazed element, e.g. a balustrade, and
- the risk of accidental falling of glass fragments on people not having caused the breakage, e.g. an overhead glazing.
(3) These risks can be evaluated in the function of a normal use of the building or construction work. This includes use by the elderly, children and people with disabilities, but excludes deliberate risk taking. It presupposes a rational and responsible behaviour of the users or, in case of children, of those responsible for supervising them.
(4) The information contained in this document can be used to define minimum glass configuration. It does not exempt from the verification according to CEN/TS 19100-1 and CEN/TS 19100-2 and where appropriate CEN/TS 19100-3.
(5) Safety against burglary, vandalism, bullet attack, explosion, exposition to fire and seismic actions are not covered in this document. Preventing these risks needs further appropriate requirements.
(6) This document does not apply to the following glass products:
- glass blocks and paver units;
- channel-shaped glass.
(7) It also does not apply to the following applications:
- escalators and moving walkway;
- lifts;
- accesses to machinery;
- animal enclosures and aquariums;
- greenhouses and agricultural installations;
- temporary scaffolds.
Bemessung und Konstruktion von Bauteilen aus Glas - Teil 4: Bestimmung der Glaskonfiguration in Abhängigkeit des Verletzungsrisikos - Leitfaden zum Erstellen von Regeln
(1)Dieses Dokument dient als Leitfaden für die Entwicklung oder Verbesserung von Regeln, die als Hilfe bei der Auswahl einer geeigneten Glaskonfiguration für den Schutz gegen Verletzungen und Herabfallen gedacht sind. Diese Regeln werden nachfolgend als „die Spezifikationen“ bezeichnet. Bei den zu verfassenden oder zu überarbeitenden Spezifikationen kann es sich um eine nationale Regel, eine nationale Norm, Empfehlungen einer Berufsorganisation, Anforderungen für ein bestimmtes Projekt usw. handeln.
(2)Dieses Dokument behandelt die Auswahl des Bruchverhaltens (siehe5.2) in Bezug auf die Sicherheit von Menschen hinsichtlich
—
des Risikos einer Verletzung im Fall eines Zusammenstoßes mit einem verglasten Bauteil, z.B. einer Trenn
wand,
—
des Risikos des Stürzens durch oder über ein verglastes Bauteil, z.B. eine Balustrade und
—
des Risikos des unbeabsichtigten Herabfallens von Glasbruchstücken, z. B. einer Uberkopfverglasung, auf Menschen, die den Glasbruch nicht verursacht haben.
(3)Diese Risiken können für die übliche funktionale Nutzung des Gebäudes oder während der Bautätigkeit ermittelt werden. Dies umfasst die Nutzung durch ältere Menschen, Kinder und Menschen mit Behinderun
gen, schließt aber das bewusste Eingehen von Risiken aus. Es setzt ein rationales und verantwortungsvolles Verhalten der Nutzer oder, im Fall von Kindern, der verantwortlichen Aufsichtspersonen, voraus.
(4)Die Informationen, die in diesem Dokument enthalten sind, können dazu dienen, Mindestanforderungen an Glaskonfigurationen festzulegen. Dies befreit nicht von der Nachweisführung nach CEN/TS19100-1 und CEN/TS19100-2, und gegebenenfalls nach CEN/TS19100-3.
(5)Schutz gegen Einbruch, Vandalismus, Angriff mit Schusswaffen, Explosion, Einwirkung von Feuer und Erd
beben ist nicht Gegenstand dieses Dokuments. Für die Vermeidung dieser Risiken sind weitere geeignete
nahmen zur ergreifen.

0 Introduction
0.1 Introduction to CEN/TS 19100-4
This document is based on several European documents covering the choice of appropriate glazing for
the protection against injuries and falling, e.g. national standards, national building codes, professional
association recommendations, etc.
The aim of this guidance is to assist experts who want to write new safety Specifications or to revise
existing ones, whatever the type of document. It does not pretend to be exhaustive.
The values given are examples only and are based on different practices in Europe. Experts using this
guidance are free to choose other values.
In the same spirit, they can also take all or only some of the topics covered in this document and can add
requirements for situations not considered here.
0.2 Verbal forms used in the Eurocodes
The verb “shall” expresses a requirement strictly to be followed and from which no deviation is permitted
in order to comply with the Eurocodes.
The verb “should” expresses a highly recommended choice or course of action. Subject to national
regulation and/or any relevant contractual provisions, alternative approaches could be used/adopted
where technically justified.
The verb “may” expresses a course of action permissible within the limits of the Eurocodes.
The verb “can” expresses possibility and capability; it is used for statements of fact and clarification of
concepts.
1 Scope
(1) This document provides guidance for the development or improvement of rules deemed to help with
the choosing of appropriate glazing for protection against injuries and falling, hereafter called “the
Specifications”. The Specifications to be written or revised can be a national regulation, a national
standard, recommendations from a professional association, requirements for a particular project, etc.
(2) This document deals with the choice of the mode of breakage (see 5.2) with regard to the safety of
people against:
— the risk of injury in the event of a collision with a glazed element, e.g. a partition,
— the risk of falling through or over a glazed element, e.g. a balustrade, and
— the risk of accidental falling of glass
