Program Number: GRD #7

Provider Number: J535

This one-hour session discusses the foundations of the glass selection process and explores the aesthetic options available to meet project design and performance requirements. In addition, there is a special focus on understanding the variety of performance coatings and customized glass fabrication options.

 Objectives

1. Understand the key criteria in selecting glass types and how those choices can influence the buidlings's aesthetic condition and trade-offs can be considered between performance and design criteria.
2. How glass samples should be viewed to gain the most accurate impression of appearance.
3. Examine the variety of glass types and sputter-coated low-E products in the market and how each differ in appearance and performance.
4. Explore a variety of fabrication techniques that provide additional glass customization and code compliance - including lamination, silkscreen and spandrel applications.
