3. Examples of Thickness Verification
As previously indicated, the verification procedure involves calculating the minimum thickness e1 of a hypothetical single-pane, monolithic, annealed glass for the loads applied to the actual glazing, and then verifying that the pre-selected composition satisfies the comparison equation between eR and e1, as well as the deformation equation.
3.1 Case of a single monolithic pane of glass
Suppose that the loads on a 0.9 × 1.5 m glazing unit, intended for a frame whose top rail is less than 6 m above the ground (c = 0.9), supported on three sides with a long free edge, are P = 1,200 Pa. These loads result in a value of e1 = 6.97 mm and a value of ec = 6.97 × 0.9 = 6.27 mm.
