BS EN 572-4 is a European Standard. BS EN 572-4 is the 4th part of the Basic soda lime silicate glass products series that discusses drawn sheet glass. BS EN 572-4 discusses scope, references, terms and definitions, dimensional requirements, thickness, tolerances and much more in detail to ensure accuracy.
BS EN 572-4 has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 129 “Glass in building” the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
BS EN 572-4 specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and visual faults) for drawn sheet glass, as defined in EN 572-1:2012, for use in building.
BS EN 572-4 applies only to drawn sheet glass supplied in rectangular panes and in-stock sizes. EN 572-8 gives information on drawn sheet glass in sizes other than those covered by this BS EN 572-4.
BS EN 572-4 on Drawn sheet glass is useful for:
High performance of drawn sheet glass is important. Standardization in the process of manufacturing drawn sheet glass ensures better quality production of drawn sheet glass.
Drawn sheet glass is important because it provides great aesthetic performance and has a high light transmittance.
BS EN 572-4 specifies dimensional and minimum quality requirements (in respect of optical and visual faults) for drawn sheet glass for use in buildings. You can access best practices in the production of drawn sheet glass by following the BS EN 572-4 guidelines. This allows you to demonstrate the effectiveness and dependability of your drawn sheet glass.
