How Does Glass Break
Glass breakage occurs in five ways:
- Tensile stress from the weight of the glass
- Thermal stress from absorption of solar radiation
- Mechanical flexing stress, i.e. from wind pressure
- Impact stress from flying objects (windblown and thrown objects)
- Twisting stress from building movements, i.e. earthquakes
Solar Heat Control
The sun sends energy to the earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation or energy waves. The visible radiation we see everyday is normal daylight and the invisible radiation is infrared solar heat and ultraviolet radiation. Roughly 44% of the sun's radiant energy is received in the form of visible light. Invisible infrared solar heat radiation accounts for approximately 53% of the sun's energy, and the remaining 3% is in the form of invisible ultraviolet or UV radiation.
