Special compositions

Glass

Combinations with other glass types - e.g. DIAMANT, PARSOL, SATINOVO, etc. – can be seen in the Chapter „Glass Types“. Multiple-sheet laminated safety glass combinations – up to a maximum overall thickness of 100 mm – can be manufactured for specific projects whereby weight and dimensional restrictions apply – see “production sizes”.

Edge steps on one or more of the edges are possible.

STADIP can also be combined with an Alarm – SECURIT ALARM. In one corner of the SECURIT sheet there is an electrical circuit fused to the surface. Should the glass be broken, the specific breakage pattern of SECURIT Fully Tempered glass causes the electrical circuit to be broken and thereby releases an Alarm connected to it. This system is patent protected by DP 2404278 and DP 1278292.

Interlayers

Alternatives to the Standard types it is also possible to employ different interlayer thicknesses and types such as SentryGlas, translucent white or coloured interlayers.

Possible interlayer thicknesses per ply

Clear: 0,38 / 0,76 / 1,14 / 1,52 / 3,04 / 4,56 mm
Matt-white: 0,38 / 0,76 mm
Coloured: [STADIP COLOR]

3. Application technical notes

For the application of glass in Austria the Regulation 4 is relevant. Therein the use of STADIP laminated safety glass is regulated for the following:

1. Must be used for
   Glass walls where danger of falling is possible overhead glazing
2. also foreseen for
   glass walls, windows and doors up to 1,5 m over finished floor facade cladding

Certification for glass walls where danger of falling is possible can be achieved through testing or structural analysis, whereby size, connection method and interfaces need to be considered. Laminated safety glass will generally fulfill these requirements.

Ball-impact safety

For particular requirements in sports arenas, halls etc. STADIP can fulfill the requirements of DIN 18032 Part 3.

Moisture effects on laminated safety glass

The PvB interlayers used are hygroscopic and extremely dry. The PvB is exposed to air at the edges of the laminate. Air humidity or standing water and water droplets at the edge of the laminated glass generally means that there is a high air-moisture content. Moisture can therefore ingress to the interlayer which has a tendency to absorb more and more. This can lead to visual „fogging“ or de-lamination at the edge, however, it does not result in any reduction of the performance of the laminate as this effect remains only at the edge.

It is important to consider when installing the glass that the glass edge is kept free of standing moisture. The above mentioned moisture appearances at the edge of the glass can also be caused by sealants or blocking materials, which depend on the compatibility of the materials used. Different substances which come into direct contact with the PvB interlayers must not have chemical or physical reactions (e.g. solvent evaporation) which may be caused by their normal application. Sealants, glazing blocks, tapes etc. which may be used must be checked for compatibility with the PvB interlayer. We recommend that you check compatibility with the manufacturer.

Laminated glass with free-standing edges

Protection of the edges against the above mentioned situations is currently not possible. It is often thought that using a thin covering of sealant or varnish will cover the outside of the interlayer and protect it. We must advise that sealants such as silicone do not adhere to PvB interlayers – they only lay against them. Even these sealants are not moisture-proof, i.e. moisture can in the form of vapour penetrate these „preventive measures“ and ingress between the „protection” and PvB.

UV-Transmission

PvB interlayers have a very minimal level of UV-Transmission. Special UV absorbing interlayers can reduce the UV-Transmission to < 1%. We must advise that the discolouration of objects behind glazing with such interlayers is not only caused by UV Light in the spectral area 280 – 380 nm but also from radiation of sunlight in the visible spectrum. We are unable to accept responsibility for such solar caused aging effects.

4. Processing

4.1 Edge treatment

STADIP has straight-cut edges as standard.

Edge quality of laminated safety glass

All laminated safety glass produced by ECKELT is fixed dimension i.e. each individual sheet is cut and edge-worked before it is laminated. This process improves the edge quality in comparison to laminated glass which is cut, mainly because the cutting and snapping actions on finished laminate have the danger of causing small or even large shelling to occur along the edges.

4.2 Drilled holes and cut-outs

Due to the potential danger of breakage we recommend laminated glass which has drilled holes, corner or edge cut-outs to be made of PLANIDUR (HS) or SECURIT (FT) glass.

Production technical edge distances are to be considered.

5. Marking

STADIP made from Float glass is not normally marked.
Dependent on the application (e.g. in lift-shafts) there may be legislature which requires the glass to be marked. This must be advised when ordering glass.

STADIP made from 2 x heat-strengthened glass is normally marked.

6. Certification

ECKELT possesses all certification for such requirements in accordance with 89/106/EEC of the Council of the European Community. The applicable CE harmonization statements can be downloaded on the right.

ECKELT has carried out impact testing to the requirements of the SGCC and has certification to ANSI Z 97.1-1984 and 16 CFR 1201 (download right).
