Overview
The oSIST prEN ISO 1288-3:2014 standard, titled Glass in building - Determination of the bending strength of glass - Part 3: Test with specimen supported at two points (four-point bending), specifies a standardized testing method for evaluating the bending strength of flat glass used in construction. Developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in parallel with ISO/DIS 1288-3:2014, this standard focuses on assessing the mechanical performance of glass under controlled bending stress conditions. It is an essential guideline for manufacturers, laboratories, and engineers aiming to ensure the reliability and safety of glass in building applications.
Key Topics
Scope and Purpose:
This standard determines the bending strength of flat glass, including edge effects, by applying a four-point bending test where the specimen is supported at two points. It also allows for separate evaluation of the bending strength of glass edges, a critical aspect in assessing glass durability.Testing Procedure:
- The specimen is placed on two supporting rollers with bending force applied through two bending rollers, establishing the four-point bending set-up.
- The test is conducted in a controlled environment at (23 ± 5) °C temperature and 40%-70% relative humidity to avoid thermal stress influences.
- Bending force ramps up uniformly at a rate of (2 ± 0.4) MPa/s until the glass breaks.
- The maximum load is recorded to calculate bending strength.
Specimen Requirements:
- Specimens are flat glass pieces typically 1100 mm in length and 360 mm in width, with thickness matching supplied conditions.
- Edge finish and orientation factors, such as asymmetrical wheel cut edges, are carefully specified to replicate real-world conditions.
Apparatus Specifications:
- The testing machine includes load measurement with ±2% accuracy, rollers of defined diameter (50 mm), and lubrication strips to prevent damage.
- Precise measuring instruments for specimen width and thickness are required.
Evaluation Method:
- Bending strength is calculated using specified formulas considering applied force, specimen geometry, and self-weight correction.
- Results include overall bending strength (surface plus edges) and edge bending strength to identify weaknesses specific to glass edges.
Reporting:
Test reports document specimen sizes, test conditions, maximum load, bending strength, and fracture origin to ensure clarity and traceability.
Applications
Safety Verification:
Ensures glass elements in buildings can withstand expected mechanical loads over their service life, crucial for windows, facades, and structural glass components.Quality Control:
Manufacturers use this standard method to verify batch consistency and compliance with safety regulations, reducing failure risks.Design Engineering:
Provides engineers with reliable bending strength values to incorporate into structural calculations and safety factors.Research and Development:
Enables development of new glass types, coatings, and edge treatments by comparing bending performance under standardized conditions.Regulatory Compliance:
Supports meeting European and international norms for glass materials in construction, facilitating market acceptance and legal safety requirements.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
