Captivating curves

Article Abstract:

Curved glass is readily available and can be used to create beautiful and functional glazing systems. The glass can be any of the common types of flat glass and is moulded to achieve the correct curvature. The framework must be able to carry the curved glass and should be constructred and installed to the same standards. Particular points to note when installing curved glass include; providing compressible internal bedding, curvature of the pressure plate and snap-over cap, minimising the number of fixing centres on pressure plates and the protection of external joints.
