Designed to help architects and specifiers navigate the world of glass and metal, the guides answer frequently asked questions relating to building structure, glazing specifications, interior glass, protective glazing, building orientation, and complex façades.
NGA’s Guide to the Glass and Glazing Requirements of the Model Building Codes, 5th Edition can also be found through the site.
The Glass Documents Website is jointly sponsored by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA), the Glass Association of North America (GANA), the Insulating Glass Manufacturers Alliance (IGMA) and the NGA, providing a one-stop reference site listing all publications and documents relating to fenestration glass for the benefit of the architectural and code communities in North America.
“We have so much rich content on architectural glass, and glassdocs.com is the perfect portal to share our materials with the architectural glass and fenestration community,” said Nicole Harris, NGA president & CEO.
