Application · Canopies and overhead glazing
Glass Canopy
Laminated overhead glass developed around structural loads, support, drainage, edge exposure and post-breakage retention.
Project manufacturing · Global delivery
Overview
Overhead safety designed into the complete make-up.
Canopy glass requires particular attention to laminated build-up, heat treatment, slope, fixing points and exposed edges. Glass must be coordinated with the supporting structure and drainage strategy.
Overhead retention
Laminated make-ups support post-breakage safety.
Structural coordination
Panel size, loads and fixing geometry determine stresses.
Weather exposure
Edges, interlayers, sealants and drainage require compatible detailing.
Project essentials
What defines a canopy panel.
Structural drawings
Provide supports, fittings, holes and bearing conditions.
Loads and slope
State dead, live, snow, wind and maintenance requirements.
Glass make-up
Define plies, heat treatment, interlayer and any coating.
Environment
Confirm edge exposure, drainage, sealants and destination climate.
