Refining the design for better performance
The rooflight had to be considered with a new specification to deliver the appropriate safety requirements. Glazing Vision’s standard glass specification of 6mm toughened glass was increased to 10mm thickness on the horizontal plane in order to minimize deflection. The eaves unit was designed in house at Glazing Vision by one of their experienced CAD designers, before being installed to meet the new specification. Without these revisions, further framework
would have been needed to support the hori- zontal pane of glass; splitting the pane into two sections in order to strengthen the large unit. Ultimately, the overall flow of the glass and min- imalist appearance of the property would have been interrupted. The homeowner’s requirement for a haven of peace and tranquility was fulfilled, in part, due to the carefully planned use of light and space throughout the design build. Installing the bespoke rooflight required a
high level of skill and attention to detail. Glazing Vision were able to adapt their designs to deliver the best possible performance, meet safety requirements and to achieve the desired, minimalist aesthetic.
