May qualify for learning hours through most Canadian architectural associations

Glass entrance specification presents unique challenges because several aesthetic and performance criteria must be met. This course will review the latest standards in glass entrance design along with key considerations for hardware selection across various applications including storefronts, point-supported glass walls and transoms with floating headers. Participants will gain practical knowledge about specifying glass entrance systems that comply with safety, accessibility, and other code requirements while meeting the design intent of the project.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Become versed in glass door styles and glass entrance system applications including storefronts, point-supported glass walls and transoms with floating headers.
  2. Apply specification criteria to ensure door openings comply with life safety, accessibility, and other building code requirements.
  3. Recognize the current trends that are influencing the future of glass entrances, including all-glass visuals and energy codes.
  4. Know the critical considerations related to panic device applications including life safety issues, UL standards, occupant loads, and opening force.
