This part of BS 6262 gives a general methodology for the selection of an appropriate choice of glass, plastics
glazing sheet material and method of glazing.
These recommendations do not apply to:
a) patent glazing (see BS 5516-1);
b) glass in non-vertical applications (see BS 5516-2);
c) glazing for furniture and fittings (see BS 7376 and BS 7449);
d) glazing for commercial greenhouses (see BS 5502-21);
e) glazing for domestic greenhouses.
Recommendations for standards of workmanship for glazing have been published separately in BS 8000-7
and therefore this subject is not dealt with in this standard.
