What is BS EN 572-6 - Wired patterned glass about?
BS EN 572-6 is a European Standard. BS EN 572-6 discusses scope, references, definitions, dimensional requirements, thickness, tolerances and much more in detail that ensures maximum credibility.
BS EN 572-6 is the 6th part of the “Glass in building — Basic soda lime silicate glass products” series that discusses wired patterned glass. BS EN 572-6 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 129 “Glass in building” the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
BS EN 572-6 specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and
visual faults) for wired patterned glass, as defined in EN 572-1:2012, for use in building.
BS EN 572-6 applies only to wired patterned glass supplied in rectangular panes and in stock
Sizes. EN 572-8 gives information on patterned wired glass in sizes other than those covered by BS EN 572-6.
Who is BS EN 572-6 - Wired patterned glass for?
BS EN 572-6 on wired patterned glass is useful for:
- Manufacturers of wired patterned glass
- Building Constructors and Engineers
- Entities involved in Building Research and Development
- Property and Building Directorates
- Architects
- Glass Technologists
Why should you use BS EN 572-6 - Wired patterned glass?
Because of rising quality and performance standards, standardisation in wired patterned glass is becoming increasingly important. Wired pattern glass has several advantages especially that it prevents the glass from malfunctioning during extreme conditions. It is fire-resistant and cost-effective. BS EN 572-6 specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and visual faults) for wired patterned glass for use in buildings. BS EN 572-6 provides guidelines that assure maximum safety and high performance. Implementing BS EN 572-6 will be highly beneficial as it can increase durability and credibility.
