What is Glazing in Construction?<\/h3>\n\t

In the context of construction, glazing refers to the process of installing glass panels to serve as windows, doors, facades, partitions, and other building elements. Additionally, glazing is also a noun that refers to the glass that is fitted to the frame itself. The term “glazing” comes from the word “glace”, which is a word to describe a smooth, glossy surface. <\/p>\n

Modern building design and aesthetic have given rise to the increased use of glass and glass panels to serve anywhere between doors and curtain walls. Glass panels are highly valued as a design element, as it allows a lot of natural lighting into rooms and spaces. Now, you can see glass walls, doors, and partitions in almost every office building around the world. <\/p>\n\t

Why is Glazing Safety Important?<\/h3>\n\t

Glazing Safety is important because, no matter the application, glass is still fragile to breaking when handled or installed incorrectly. According to Part K, or the Approved Document K, impacts with glazing have shown to cause cutting and piercing injuries. Hands, wrists, and arms are noted to be particularly vulnerable. Further, impact between waist and shoulder levels can be followed by a fall through the glazing itself, resulting in further injury. <\/p>\n

It is important to note that in the Approved Document K Wales, it is stated that regions of glazing installed within a certain distance from the floor line is more likely to cause injury to installers and others. This region is known as the “critical zone”. Further, in order to reduce the likelihood of injuries when working with glazing in critical zones, Part K also notes safety measures that installers are required to perform. <\/p>\n\t

What is Required for Glazing Safety?<\/h3>\n\t

According to the Approved Document F, the requirement as to the protection against impact with glazing is the following:<\/p>\n

“Glazing, with which people are likely to come into contact whilst moving in or about the building shall:<\/p>\n
