ASTM C1172 – Standard Specification for Laminated Architectural Flat Glass
Description:
Abstract
This specification covers the quality requirements for cut sizes of flat laminated glass consisting of two or more lites of glass bonded with an interlayer material for use in building glazing. Depending on the number, thickness and treatment of plies, and the number and thickness of interlayers, the glass shall be laminated for applications including but not limited to safety security, detention, hurricane/cyclic-wind resistance, blast resistant, bullet resistant and sound reduction glazing applications. The following test methods shall be performed to meet the specified requirements: impact test for safety glazing; test for missile impact and cyclic pressure; test for security glazing; test for detention glazing; test for bullet resisting glazing; test for burglary resisting glazing; overall bow and warp; and size.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers the quality requirements of flat laminated glass consisting of two or more lites of glass bonded with an interlayer material for use in building and related applications.
1.2 Depending on the number, thickness, and treatment of lites, and the number and thickness of interlayers, the glass shall be laminated for applications including, but not limited to, safety, security, detention, hurricane/cyclic-wind resistance, blast resistance, bullet resistance, sound reduction, and decorative glazing.
1.3 Optical distortion and the evaluation thereof are not currently within the scope of the standard. Mockups are recommended as a method to evaluate glass. (See Appendix X1.)
1.4 The dimensional values, except thickness designations, stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.
