GANA RELEASES 23RD GLASS INFORMATIONAL
BULLETIN
(TOPEKA) - The Glass
Association of North America (GANA) announced
today the release of its 23rd Glass
Informational Bulletin (GIB), a series of
educational documents available to the industry
as a free download on their website. Titled
Blast Mitigating Glazing, the GIB looks at
various tests and standards in the industry for
laminated glazing applications constructed to
mitigate the hazards of a blast or explosion
outside of a building incorporating these
applications.
“The GANA Protective Glazing
Committee created this document to help the
industry understand testing and performance
requirements that have been set for blast
resistant glazing,” said Valerie Block of DuPont
Glass Laminating Solutions and Chair of the
Committee. “The Blast Mitigating Glazing
Informational Bulletin is a good place to start
for architects, building owners or fabricators
interested in learning the basics around blast
resistant glazing.”
Since their original
creation, GANA’s Glass Information Bulletins
have been downloaded over a 350,000 times from
the website at
www.glasswebsite.com/techcenter. Visitors to
the site’s TechCenter will be able to add this
GIB to their library beginning today.
