ISO 11485-3

Description / Abstract: This part of ISO 11485 defines the conditions to classify a curved glass product as a curved safety glass.

This part of ISO 11485 classifies curved tempered glass and curved laminated glass as safety glasses used in buildings, by performance under impact and by mode of breakage. The classification by drop height corresponds to graded values of energy transmitted by the impact of a person.

The classification system in this part of ISO 11485 relates to increasing personal safety by

— the reduction of cutting and piercing injuries to persons, and

— the containment characteristics of the material.

This part of ISO 11485 covers fracture characteristics, including fragmentation test and the physical and mechanical characteristics of curved tempered safety glass for use in buildings.
