Glass for roofs and skylights are more than just design features of architectural elements —they are critical components that define the functionality, safety, and beauty of modern buildings.For example, hotels, stations, airport terminals, department stores, exhibition halls, gymnasiums, museums, hospitals, and residential buildings. Large patio covered with various forms and colors of glass, constituting an indoor glass space unaffected by the climate.
Glass roofs and skylights serve as the heart of many contemporary buildings, offering:
Natural Illumination: Maximizing daylight to reduce reliance on artificial lighting and lower energy costs.
Visual Connectivity: Creating seamless indoor-outdoor transitions, allowing occupants to enjoy views of the sky and surroundings.
Spatial Harmony: Organizing building layouts by serving as central focal points that enhance orientation and flow.
Aesthetic Appeal: Adding elegance and modernity with customizable forms, colors, and designs.
Whether in bustling airport terminals or serene residential patios, glass roofs and skylights create indoor spaces that are immune to weather extremes, enabling year-round enjoyment of natural light and open skies.
Selecting the right glass involves balancing multiple performance factors to ensure durability, safety, and efficiency. Here’s what matters most:
Purpose: Withstands wind, snow, and constant loads without failure.
Solution: High-strength tempered or laminated glass, tailored to local climate conditions.
Ideal for: regions with heavy snowfall or high wind speeds.
Purpose: Resists deformation during earthquakes and ensures structural integrity.
Solution: Flexible support systems paired with impact-resistant glass.
Ideal for: earthquake-prone areas.
Purpose: Maintains airtight seals to prevent air leakage and energy loss.
Solution: Precision-engineered frames and gaskets.
Ideal for: energy-efficient buildings where climate control is critical.
Purpose: Prevents rainwater or snowmelt infiltration under wind pressure.
Solution: Slope designs that promote drainage and minimize condensation.
Ideal for: areas with high rainfall or storm activity.
Purpose: Reduces heat transfer for optimal indoor comfort.
Solution: Insulating glass units (IGUs) with Low-E coatings, argon gas fillings, or heat-reflective layers.
Ideal for: cold climates to retain warmth or hot climates to reflect heat.
Sound Insulation: Laminated glass for noise reduction in urban settings.
Fire Resistance: Fire-rated glass to meet safety regulations.
Hail Impact Resistance: Durable glass to withstand severe weather.
Lightning Protection: Integrated systems to safely dissipate electrical charges.
