This Part of BS 952 classifies glass for use in building into three glass compositions: the commonly used soda lime-silicate glass, borosilicate glass and glass ceramics. Terms and definitions, together with details of nominal thickness, thickness tolerance, mass/unit area and the normally available maximum sizes are given.
