This calculator is a demonstration version, with reduced capabilities, of the full size Comprehensive Window Glass Design program, a freestanding Windows™ application developed by Standards Design Group, Inc. in cooperation with the Primary Glass Manufacturers Council.

Glass can make your home more comfortable, secure and attractive if you know what to ask for. We take you through the opportunities to enhance your lifestyle using Pilkington glazing in your home.

The durable, pyrolytic low-e coating means that our thermal control low-e can be handled using standard float glass techniques. And, this durability means that it is also ideally suited for use in storm windows. Cutting . Cutting Pilkington Energy Advantage™ is as simple as cutting ordinary clear glass. No special tools are needed.

Its unique dual-action coating uses the forces of nature to help keep the glass free from dirt, giving not only the practical benefit of less cleaning, but also clearer, better-looking windows. How it works. The unique dual-action self-cleaning coating is located on the external glass pane.

Pilkington Spacia™ has low overall thickness (6 mm) and good acoustic performance, making it ideal for use in historic buildings, offering replacement windows more in keeping with the original design. It may even allow the use of the original frames if these are in a reasonable or repairable condition.

Pilkington Wind Load Calculator. This calculator makes it easy for you to perform preliminary assessments of the Wind Load resistance of single glazed, annealed (not heat treated) window glass, with various edge support conditions, according to the ASTM E 1300 standard.

Pilkington OptiView™ Range. Pilkington OptiView™ is a color neutral, anti-reflective, pyrolytic coated product.It can be used in a monolithic or laminated application.

Window glass is constantly being heated and cooled by factors such as the sun, wind, and interior HVAC. The small differentials between temperatures at various portions of the glass causes expansion and contraction which, if the stresses are great enough, can lead to breakage in ordinary annealed glass. That's why, in many applications, heat strengthening will be required by local building codes and ordinances.
