Toughened glass achieves its impact resistance by having the strength increased by a factor of upto 5 and when it breaks it collapses into small relatively harmless particles. Laminated glass is no stronger than the annealed glass it is formed from but the interlayer bonds the panes together.

Glass manages solar heat radiation by three mechanisms: reflectance, transmittance and absorptance. These are defined as follows: Reflectance – the proportion of solar radiation reflected back into the atmosphere. Direct transmittance – the proportion of solar radiation transmitted directly through the glass.
