POSIglaze Frameless Glass Balustrade 21.5mm PVB Laminate Wind Load Report

Under wind loading there is no pass or fail criteria, the system will either be adequate or inadequate in any particular situation. So for example a system installed on a building at the top of an escarpment in the North of Scotland will be expected to resist much greater wind forces than one in the centre of London. However, as an indication, the speed of a 3 second gust of wind in the North of Scotland could reach 56 m/s at 10 m above the ground with a likely incidence of return of once in 50 years.
