Everything you need to know about glass structures and balustrades
After the success of previous editions, Faraone is getting ready for its 2015 Tour consisting of 26 stops starting from 9 February to 25 September. From north to south and the islands, the company will provide free training to architects, engineers, surveyors, companies, joiners, glassworks, metalworks companies, etc. Basically all sector operators who feel lost in the maze of design standards and counter-standards.
Indeed, the new directions in UNI and CNR (CNR DT 210/2013, Uni 7697:2014) have created a lot of confusion among operators about how to use glass. Hence the importance of taking part in events held by Faraone. To meet clients halfway whilst following regulations, the company conducted 40 lab tests, performed by the FARAONE LAB and certifying bodies. You can take a look at the results for yourself by registering for the course nearest you.
The educational debate will focus on glass structures and namely balustrades, also considering the latest trends, such as the 2015 new entries related to Moving Architectures (the House with a removable roof, Removable roofs, Concealed “Sash Doors and Windows” measuring up to 4 x 3.2 m). Thanks to Faraone’s solutions, trade professionals can choose glass that complies with current standards without having to radically increase costs. The “Guide to choosing glass in line with UNI standards and CNR instructions” can be an important ally for sector players who must comply with laws, but above all guarantee personal safety. By attending the 6 hours in the classroom with top qualified speakers, you will be able to learn all the information required to design glass structures in line with the new standards, in complete safety, and know what happens if one or both glass surfaces of the balustrade break. Moreover, the speakers will add video clips and live tests on glass until they break it. They will also discuss innovative topics such as reducing acoustics with glass balustrades and saving energy with glass verandas.
Finally, taking part in the Faraone 2015 Grand Tour is an unmissable opportunity to keep abreast with all the latest sector news, from regulations to safety, from environmental protection to market trends.
