During the inspection, I realized that the fire rated glass stamp was crucial for verification. It clearly displayed the manufacturer, fire resistance rating, and compliance standards, which allowed me to confirm that the installed panes could withstand fire for the required duration. Paying attention to these stamps not only ensured regulatory compliance but also gave peace of mind that occupants would have critical extra minutes to evacuate safely in an emergency, all while maintaining the building’s modern aesthetic.
While managing a large office refurbishment, I needed to replace several windows in corridors and meeting rooms. My goal was to ensure the new glass met fire safety standards, but I wasn’t familiar with how to quickly confirm certification on site.
