Exceptional production requirements may cause this to be reduced but the nominal width is never below 3150 mm. 3.5 final cut size pane of glass that has been cut down to the dimensions being required either for installation or processing into a final product e.g. insulating glass units, thermally toughened safety glass, …of those dimensions 3.6 optical faults these are faults that lead to distortions in the appearance of objects observed trough the glass 3.7 visual faults faults, which alter the visual quality of the glass. They are spot faults and linear / extend faults 3.8 spot faults a spot fault is a nucleus, which is sometimes accompanied by a halo of distorted glass. The dimension of a spot fault comprising a nucleus with a halo is obtained by multiplying the dimension of the nucleus by a factor of approximately 3 3.9 linear / extended faults these faults can be on or in the glass, in the form of deposits, marks or scratches that occupy an extended length or area 3.10 edge defects these defects can occur on the edge of a cut size piece in the form of entrant and emergent faults and / or bevels 4 Chemical composition 4.1 Principal constituents The magnitude of the proportions by mass of the principal constituents of all the alkaline earth silicate glass products covered by this document is as follows:

These values, for normal annealed glass without any further toughening, are not precise requirements with which the glass shall strictly comply, but are the generally accepted figures for use in calculations where a high degree of accuracy is not required.

5.2 Designation of clear alkaline earth silicate glass An earth alkaline silicate glass product is defined as clear alkaline earth silicate glass when it is not tinted and when the light transmittance of the glass material, unmodified by the possible presence of a coating:
- after any necessary pre-treatment
- measured according to EN 410
- rounded to the nearest 0,01 is greater than or equal to the value given in Table 2 for the nominal thickness of the alkaline earth silicate glass product. In order to measure the light transmittance characteristics of alkaline earth silicate glass, to determine whether it can be classified as clear, it is necessary, in some cases, to carry out a pre-treatment:
- coatings on smooth surfaces have to be eliminated, without modifying the thickness of the alkaline earth silicate glass substrate. The light transmittance of an alkaline earth silicate glass substrate has to be measured with its surfaces in a polished condition. Table 2 — Mean values for determining if a transparent alkaline earth silicate glass product is clear Nominal thickness in mm Mean value(1,2) 2 3 4 5 6 8 10 12 15
0,90 0,90 0,90 0,89 0,89 0,88 0,87 0,86 0,84 1) The limiting values given are applicable provided that the measured thickness of the alkaline earth silicate glass product is within the allowable tolerances for the nominal thickness of that product.
2) The values given are not suitable for design.
They are values used only for the definition of clear alkaline earth silicate glass and exclude the effects of coatings.
The values of light transmittance used for design should be obtained from the glass manufacturer, measured according to EN 410.
a) Since glass is insensitive to photochemical effects, the spectral properties (transmissions of light and solar energy) of the basic earth alkaline silicate glass products are not modified by direct or indirect solar radiation.
b) The surface of glass used in building is virtually insensitive to attack from the environment. NOTE: Whilst the surface of the glass when installed in a building is virtually
