Use of advanced glazings |
|||||
Description
This report looks at the advanced glazings available and the potential for their use in different countries and climates. The report is based a number of discussions held with potential users, manufacturers and researchers involved in the development of advanced glazing technologies in several countries, including the UK, Germany, Australia, Japan, Canada and the USA. The results of these discussions are presented along with a literature review and descriptions of the different advanced glazings. Glazings discussed include: Uncoated glasses, Coatings and films, Multiple-sheet glazings, TIMs, Directional glazings, Variable (chromogenic) glasses, Edge and frame details. Competing technologies include: Photovoltaics, Light-pipes and shelves, Shutters, Blinds and Curtains. |
