The use of 9/,s-inch (14.3 mm) and 5/a-inch (15.87 mm) laminated tempered glass panel and anchorage systems have not been evaluated for use as a guard or handrail system where the 50 plf (0.73 kN/m) loading Page 1 of 31 ESR-3563 Page 2 of 31 -------------l[~tt5'1-J u oc1w,oc•y1.:ccp1cdand rru~1cd !-----------.....;;'------ is required by 2021 IBC Section 1607.9.1 (2018, 2015 and 2012 IBC Section 1607.8.1; 2009 IBC Section 1607.7.1). The system may be installed up to a total height of 42 inches (106.7 cm) without a top rail or handrail when 9/,s-inch thick (14.3 mm) or 5!a-inch thick (15.87 mm) laminated tempered glass panels up to 41 inches (104.1 cm) in height with an interlayer meeting the requirements of Section 3.2.1 are used. Installation without a top rail complies with the Exceptions noted in IBC Section 2407.1.2 and 2021 and 2018 IRC Section R308.4.4.1. This use is limited to installations under the IRC or in one and two family dwellings under the IBC where the 50 plf (0.73 kN/m) live load is not applicable. The system may also be installed without a top rail or handrail with monolithic or laminated glass panels when use as a spa or pool barrier and installed in accordance with Section 4.2.6. This use is limited to configurations in which the system is not required to function as a guard or handrail. 3.0 DESCRIPTION 3.1 General: The Glass Vice Glass Panel Railing and Glass Baluster Systems allow for the construction of frameless glass balustrade guards, wind breaks and pool fences. The systems include the monolithic tempered glass (to be provided by others) or laminated tempered glass (to be provided by others), the railing, the glass clamp, the glass bracket, and the fastening into the substrate. The Glass Vice system uses a proprietary glass clamp cast from Duplex 2205 (UNS S32205) or 316 stainless steel, complying with ASTM A890/A890M, to anchor and fully support ½-inch (12.7 mm) or 5!a-inch (15.87 mm) monolithic tempered glass or, 9/,s-inch (14.3 mm) or %-inch (15.87 mm) laminated tempered glass balustrades. Monolithic tempered glass installations may have a stainless steel handrail located between 34 and 42 inches (864 and 1067 mm) above floor surface as appropriate for the installation. A handrail or guard must be installed when the monolithic tempered glass balustrade is required for fall protection to comply with IBC 2407.1 . The laminated tempered glass is limited to installations where a handrail or guard is not required as noted in Section 2.0 of this report. The balustrade system must be anchored into wood, concrete or steel substrates with a Glass Vice clamp and appropriate fasteners. The clamp is available in various configurations (See Table 1 and Figures 4 through 16 in this report) based on the substrate and location of attachment. The various clamps are supplied with the Glass Vice fasteners and must be used for the installation. The Glass Vice clamps are the same for all glass thicknesses with the bearing gasket thickness matched to the glass thickness. The glass moment strengths are indicated in Tables 2 and ~ of this report for the specified glass type and thickness. 3.2 Material: The glass must be fully tempered glass complying with ASTM C 1048, ANSI 297 .1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 (procured separately). The minimum thickness of the tempered glass for each guard system is as required for the loading conditions; refer to Tables 2 and ~ of this report. The handrail is manufactured out of stainless steel material and is 11/2-inch by 1-inch (38.1 mm by 25.4 mm) tube. The handrail must be connected to the glass balustrade with a proprietary bracket made from 316 stainless steel supplied by Glass Vice. The handrail bracket consists of a bent 9/,s-inch (14.3 mm) diameter 316 stainless steel bar with attached mounting flanges and a mounting plate on the opposite face of the glass connected together with one M8 by 20 mm countersunk stainless steel screw. The Glass Vice glass clamp is composed of an adjustable clamping system which is made up of duplex 2205 or 316 stainless steel clamp, 8 mm diameter adjustable screws, 3 mm by 140 mm Polyethylene plastic strips, 8 mm by 8 mm by 140 mm stainless steel bars, and an 8 mm by 12 mm by 40 mm stainless steel bar at the bottom center of clamp cavity. The clamp is approximately 71/16 inches (179 mm) in height. The base is available in various configurations as described in this report, depending on the substrate, concrete, wood or steel substrate and the attachment to the surface or fascia. Connection to the top of a concrete substrate uses two M10 stainless steel (SS) threaded rods, ISO 3506-1 Class A4, which must be installed into the concrete substrate with Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 adhesive (ESR-3814). See Figures 4 through § and Figure 10, as applicable, in this report. Installation of the rods must comply with the installation details noted in ESR-3814. For top installation into wood, a stainless steel adaptor plate (American Baseplate SLDPRT) must be used for the base. The adaptor plate is 316 stainless steel, machined from 0.394-inch (10 mm) flat bar and anchored to the wood with four 3/s-inch (9.5 mm) SS lag screws, all fasteners are supplied with the clamp by Glass Vice. ESR-3563 Page 3 of 31 -------------l[tftpf1 Moct 1Yidc'1Aeccp1ca,ndTM1ca !-------------=~--- For fascia mounting installation, the Glass Vice is available as an architectural clamp made of cast stainless steel with a stainless steel cover to conceal the two mounting bolts. The architectural clamp is available for use with concrete, wood and steel substrates for balustrades installed per the IBC and IRC. The architectural clamp consists of a tapered extension leg 6¼ inches (159 mm) from the base for fascia mount. To mount to wood fascia, flat bar standoffs or threaded standoff nuts must be used with the two mounting bolts or screws, between the clamp leg extension and the fascia substrate as shown in Figures 11 , 12 and 16. To mount to metal or concrete substrates, flat bar standoffs or round standoffs of minimum 0.394 inch (10 mm) in diameter must be used with the two mounting bolts between the clamp leg extension and the fascia substrate as shown in Figures 10 and 15. 3.2.1 Laminated Tempered Glass: The laminated tempered glass must be fully tempered laminated glass complying with ASTM C1172, ANSI Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 (glass procured separately-not supplied by Glass Vice). The fully laminated tempered glass used in the fabrication must comply with ASTM C1048. The interlayer must be 0.06-inch (1.54 mm) thick, and must have a minimum shear modulus of 1640 psi (11 .3 MPa) for T s 122°F (50°C) and a minimum ultimate tensile strength of 5000 psi (34.5 MPa) for T s 122°F (50°C). The minimum glass thicknesses specified in ASTM C1036 and C1300 are modified as specified in this report. All glass edges must be polished. 3.2.1 .1 The 9/,s-inch (14.3mm) laminated tempered glass must be made from ¼-inch (6 mm) nominal tempered glass with a minimum true thickness of 0.225 inch (5.72 mm).
