Capabilities
Oldcastle Glass® can calculate the most suitable
glass for use in any given application. However, it
is the responsibility of the design professional to
calculate and provide the equivalent design load.
This calculation must take into account the correct
combination of snow load (if applicable), wind load
and dead load. Without the equivalent design load,
Oldcastle Glass® must rely on the conservative
limits recommended by the American Architectural
Manufacturers Association (AAMA) for four-side
uniform support. See AAMA Guidelines.
