Glass in building - Thermally toughened soda lime silicate channel shaped safety glass - Part 1: Definition and description
This European Standard specifies tolerances, flatness of web and flanges, flange deviation, edgework, fragmentation and physical and mechanical characteristics of monolithic thermally toughened soda lime silicate channel shaped safety glass for use in buildings.
Other requirements, not specified in this document, can apply to thermally toughened soda lime silicate channel shaped safety glass, which undergoes an additional treatment, e.g. coating. The additional requirements are specified in the appropriate product standard EN 15683-2. Thermally toughened soda lime silicate channel shaped safety glass, in this case, does not lose its mechanical or thermal characteristics.
Glas im Bauwesen - Thermisch vorgespanntes Kalknatron-Profilbau-Sicherheitsglas - Teil 1: Definition und Beschreibung
Diese Europäische Norm legt Toleranzen, Ebenheit von Steg und Flanschen, Flanschabweichung, Kanten-bearbeitung, Bruchverhalten sowie physikalische und mechanische Eigenschaften von einscheibigem, thermisch vorgespannten Kalknatron-Profilbau-Sicherheitsglas für den Gebrauch im Bauwesen fest.
An thermisch vorgespanntes Kalknatron-Profilbau-Sicherheitsglas können, wenn es weiterverarbeitet, z. B. beschichtet wird, andere Anforderungen gestellt werden, die in diesem Dokument nicht beschrieben sind. Die zusätzlichen Anforderungen sind in der entsprechenden Produktnorm EN 15683 2 festgelegt. In diesem Fall wird thermisch vorgespanntes Kalknatron-Profilbau-Sicherheitsglas seine mechanischen oder thermischen Eigenschaften nicht verlieren.
Verre dans la construction - Verre de silicate sodo-calcique profilé de sécurité trempé thermiquement - Partie 1 : Définition et description
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les tolérances, la planéité de la base et des ailes, l'écart de l'aile, la finition des chants, la fragmentation et les caractéristiques physiques et mécaniques du verre monolithique de silicate sodo-calcique profilé de sécurité trempé thermiquement pour l'utilisation dans la construction.
D'autres exigences, non spécifiées dans le présent document, peuvent s'appliquer au verre de silicate sodo-calcique profilé de sécurité trempé thermiquement, qui subit un traitement supplémentaire, par exemple une couche. Les exigences additionnelles sont spécifiées dans la norme de produit correspondante, EN 15682-2. Dans ce cas, le verre de silicate sodo-calcique profilé de sécurité trempé thermiquement ne perd pas ses caractéristiques mécaniques ou thermiques.
Steklo v gradbeništvu - Toplotno kaljeno natrij-kalcijevo silikatno utorjeno varnostno steklo - 1. del: Definicije in opis
Ta evropski standard določa toleranco, ploskost rebra in prirobnic, odstopanje prirobnic, obdelavo robov, drobljenje ter fizične in mehanske lastnosti monolitnega toplotno kaljenega natrij-kalcijevega silikatnega utorjenega varnostnega stekla, ki se uporablja v gradbeništvu. Druge zahteve, ki niso navedene v tem dokumentu, se lahko uporabljajo za toplotno kaljeno natrij-kalcijevo silikatno utorjeno varnostno steklo, ki se ga dodatno obdela, npr. z nanosi. Dodatne zahteve so določene v ustreznem standardu za izdelek EN 15683-2. Toplotno kaljeno natrij-kalcijevo silikatno utorjeno varnostno steklo v tem primeru ne izgubi mehanskih ali toplotnih lastnosti.

Overview
EN 15683-1:2013 - issued by CEN - defines and describes thermally toughened soda lime silicate channel shaped safety glass used in buildings. The standard specifies dimensional tolerances, flatness (overall bow), flange deviation, edgework before toughening, fragmentation behaviour and key physical and mechanical characteristics for monolithic channel-shaped safety glass. It is a definition-and-description part; additional product and conformity requirements (for coated or otherwise treated products) are addressed in EN 15683-2.
Keywords: EN 15683-1:2013, thermally toughened, soda lime silicate, channel shaped safety glass, CEN, fragmentation, tolerances.
Key Topics
- Scope and product definition: Applies to monolithic thermally toughened channel-shaped soda lime silicate glass for building use and sets the basic safety and mechanical descriptors.
- Dimensions and tolerances: Specifies nominal sizes and tolerances (example ranges in the standard: widths from 232 mm to 498 mm, flange heights and nominal thicknesses such as 6 mm ±0.2 mm, and maximum lengths up to 7 000 mm with length tolerance ±3.0 mm).
- Shape tolerances: Limits on flange deviation (≤ 1.0 mm) and squareness of cut (q ≤ 3.0 mm).
- Flatness (overall bow): Measurement method (support at quarter points, measure maximum deflection along web) and maximum allowable bow of 4 mm/m.
- Edgework: Mandatory edge processing before toughening (no cutting, drilling or sawing after toughening). The standard highlights common edge finishes such as arrissed edges.
- Fragmentation test: Procedure and acceptance criteria - five taped specimens (2 100 mm long each), impacted web-side down at 13 mm from the cut edge with a pointed steel tool (examples: ~75 g hammer or spring-loaded centre punch, point radius ≈ 0.2 mm) to verify prescribed fragmentation into blunt particles.
- Physical/mechanical characteristics: Includes profile bending strength, thermal durability, allowable stress/deflection and optical distortion/anisotropy considerations as described in the document.
Applications
- Specification and purchase of channel-shaped safety glass for canopies, balustrades, façades and structural glazing where a U- or channel-section glass profile is required.
- Guidance for manufacturers (process control and QA), testing laboratories (fragmentation and flatness testing), architects and façade engineers (product selection and performance requirements), and regulatory bodies for compliance with European building standards.
- Useful when integrating toughened channel glass into framing systems that must accommodate the standard’s dimensional and bow tolerances.
Related Standards
- EN 15683-2 (Product standard / conformity)
- EN 572-1 and EN 572-7 (basic soda lime silicate and channel glass)
- EN 1288-4 (bending strength testing of channel glass)
- EN 1096-1 (coated glass)
EN 15683-1:2013 provides the baseline definitions and measurable requirements to ensure safe, consistent use of thermally toughened channel shaped glass in building projects.
