Shgc Laminated Glass

Available with low e smartsun and heatlock coatings.

Shgc laminated glass. Our low e range consists of x1 single pane laminated glass and x2 double glazed units. Insulated and laminated glass is used when regular glass is not strong enough safe enough and energy efficient enough for homes and businesses. Laminated glass provides durability high performance and multifunctional benefits while preserving aesthetic appearance. Laminated glass laminated glass is also available for added strength enhanced security and sound control.

Visible light glass type u value shgc transmittance 5 16 laminated glass for windows. Sound reducing glass this glass helps reduce the volume of outside noise. The lower the shgc the better the glass restricts heat energy transmission. The glass and interlayers can be a variety of colors and thicknesses designed to meet building code standards and requirements as necessary.

Solargray glass may also be combined with sungate 400 glass in a one inch igu for improved solar heat. The calculation of glass shgc shading coefficient is limited to single glazing systems only but not for double or triple glazing systems. Safety glass tempered safety glass is available on all products and comes standard on all patio doors. The shgc is the fraction of incident solar radiation admitted through a window both directly transmitted and absorbed and subsequently released inward.

The shgc is also known as the solar factor sf or g. You can now use more glass in a new home or retrofit our glass in your existing home to maximise views and increase comfort all year round. Once sealed the glass sandwich behaves as a single unit and looks like normal glass. Laminated glass can be broken but the fragments will tend to.

Solargray glass has been a popular choice for commercial structures because of its cool medium gray appearance and ability to control solar heat gain and glare. Both are custom ordered and cut to fit openings for everything from glass walls in businesses to doors and windows in homes to windshields in automobiles. This is limited by the mathematical models for shgc shading coefficient calculation. Full spectrophotometric data are required for double or triple glazing systems.

It is the total heat transmission of direct solar transmission and that proportion of absorbed radiation that is re radiated into the building from the action of heat absorbing glass. In a one inch insulating glass unit igu solargray glass provides visual light transmittance vlt of 40 percent. Laminated glass is two or more lites pieces of glass permanently bonded together with one or more plastic interlayers pvb using heat and pressure.

Glass which provides better insulation than standard glass.
