A 2 ft x 4 ft tempered glass might cost around $180-$250. You can buy it from stores selling hardware items as well as from contractors doing house improvement services. If you want to seek contractors for attaching tempered glass in you home, let them estimate the size and kind of tempered glass appropriate for your house.

Tempered glass is four to five times stronger than standard glass and does not break into sharp shards when it fails. Tempered glass is manufactured through a process of extreme heating and rapid cooling, making it harder than normal glass. The brittle nature of tempered glass causes it to shatter into small oval-shaped pebbles when broken. This eliminates the danger of sharp edges. Due to this property, along with its strength, tempered glass is often referred to as safety glass. The thermal process that cures tempered glass also makes it heat resistant. Tempered glass is used to make the carafes in automatic coffee makers and the windows in ovens. Computer screens, skylights, door windows, tub enclosures and shower doors are more examples of places you will find tempered glass. Building codes also require the windows of many public structures to be made of tempered glass. Automobiles use a different type of safety glass for the windshield and tempered glass for the back and side windows. Windshields are made from laminated glass, which sandwiches a sheet of plastic between two panels of glass. When the windshield breaks, the glass panels stick to the plastic film, rather than falling away to possibly injure the driver or other passengers.

If any part of the glass fails, the entire panel shatters at once. This distinguishes it from normal glass, which might experience a small crack or localized breakage from an isolated impact. Tempered glass might also fail long after the event that caused the failure. Stresses continue to play until the defect erupts, triggering breakage of the entire panel. In recent years, acrylic has replaced tempered glass in many applications in which heat is not a factor. Acrylic is 20 times more impact resistant than glass and does not shatter like tempered glass. Instead, acrylic dents if the impact is strong enough. If the force is sufficient to cause acrylic to fail, it will crack without shattering. Acrylic is also half the weight of glass and has many other advantages. However, it is flammable. Therefore, you won`t find an acrylic coffee carafe or oven door.

Glassman Post 50 answer to question 19: you can buy fire rated ceramic glass from Technical Glass Products(TGP) in Washington. Related Topics Tempered GlassTempered Safety GlassBuy Tempered GlassCurved Tempered GlassLaminated Tempered Glass Glassman Post 49 question 8: Gary, likely you are looking at two different applications for the glass required in your estimate. 1/4" clear tempered is used for all of your interior glazing(vestibules, hallow metal framing etc.) the low e annealed refers to the makeup of the insulated glass unit on the exterior of the building, in the curtain wall, or windows. this will need to be fully tempered if it is adjacent, or in a door; or 18" from the finish floor. Glassman Post 48 Answer to question 22: tempered glass (1/4" thick) clear, with a rough edge costs less than $2 per square foot from major glass fabricators(Oldcastle, PDC, Arch, etc.) polish edge costs normally 10-15 cents per inch. As you increase thickness, or change the tint, or shape, the cost increases dramatically. Glassman Post 47 Answer to question 25: Don`t replace it until it breaks. crazing the edge of a tempered lite does not automatically equal spontaneous breakage. edge stresses are at maximum to about 1/2" and in from the edge of the glass. I have polished ground as much as 1/4" from tempered lites with no breakage. You may get away with it. Related Topics Tempered GlassTempered Safety GlassBuy Tempered GlassCurved Tempered GlassLaminated Tempered Glass Glassman Post 46 answer to question 26: If you are looking for resistance to heat/cooling the glass of choice is Heat Strengthened. Many specifications call for all glass to be HS, and fully tempered glass to be heat soaked.

Related Topics Tempered GlassTempered Safety GlassBuy Tempered GlassCurved Tempered GlassLaminated Tempered Glass Glassman Post 43 answer to question 30: All overhead glazing must be laminated, many insulated units are laminated glass on the inboard lite, and tempered only on the outboard lite. The theory is that the tempered glass on the outboard lite has the strength to resist impact from birds, roof gravel in storms, as well as solar heat. The inboard lite will be laminated to confine any breakage from falling onto occupants below. Wire glass is acceptable as overhead glazing. Wire glass is acceptable in fire rated applications, however in doors, or adjacent to doors, or 18" above finished floor must be impact rated for safety. specifically Wirelite NT. anon126354 Post 42 answer to number 38: Many times tempered glass is prone to spontaneous breakage. This occurs when Nickel Sulfide inclusions re-expand during the heat cycling process after installation. Nickel Sulfide particles shrink during the tempering process and the float/melting process equally, but in the tempering process they are not given time to re-expand during the quenching process, thus are confined to their shrunken state. When the tempered glass is heated slowly from solar heat gain, the Nickel Sulfide particle grows. It can apply as much as 500,000 psi in a very confined area, thus causing spontaneous breakage. spontaneous breakage does not occur in heat strengthened glass because the nickel sulfide is allowed to re-grow duning the slow cooling process after the tempering oven, and is also not under the same internal stresses as tempered glass. It is impossible to eliminate Nickel Sulfide inclusions from glass, however the percentage of tempered lites subject to risk of breakage can be reduced by a process called "heat soaking" Essentially this is just a -"break it now"- theory, but is not 100% effective, it is costly(roughly $1.50/lite/sq ft.) and can weaken tempered glass.

It is heated up and cooled quickly so that the outside surface of the glass becomes harder than the middle. This causes the glass to break into small squares rather than shatter into shards during an accident. It is sometimes referred to as safety glass for this reason.

Related Topics Tempered GlassTempered Safety GlassBuy Tempered GlassCurved Tempered GlassLaminated Tempered Glass anon13790 Post 7 With respect to the unexpectedly broken glass, my guess is that the problem probably had to do with a structural defect in the window frame that exacerbated a previous defect in the glass itself. It is possible that the glass broke because it was not properly fitted to its frame. Without proper fitting, repeated cycles of expansion of the frame (which might be wood or metal) has built up stress in the glass. A slight disturbance, such as your opening the window shade, might put the final "nail in the coffin" for this window. Also, sometimes older casement (hinged windows that can open like a door) windows are not properly fitted into the window sash. Thus, you might close the window and flex the whole frame, thus putting unexpected stress on the glass. anon11575 Post 6 I had a strange thing happen to me.
