Glass Size and Quantity (3) 44 1/2" wide x 36" high
DLO: (3) 441/2" wide x 36" high
Glazing Method The glass was leveled and installed onto each post using (2) glass
clamps with gaskets. The sample was tested using glass clamp model
24, and each clamp was secured tightly to the glass using (2) 6mm x
20mm Flat Hex Socket Cap Screws and a gasket set. The gasket set
for the model 24 clamps were part no. 19.5007.013.00. The glass was
secured with a distance of 2" from the top of the substrate to the
bottom of the glass lite. The glass clamps had a minimum glass bite
Of 1 1/2".
Substrate 4030 PSI Concrete.
Installation The (4) posts, 38" in length including the base, were installed onto the
concrete substrate with a minimum edge distance of 3 3/8" from the
edge using (3)1/2" x 5" masonry anchors, part no. 19.4310.125.12,
with Red Head EPCONA7 Screw Epoxy per post. Glass clamps were
attached to each post using (1) 8mm x 19mm Standard Hex Socket
Cap Screw, part no. 94.0680.820.14, which attached to a
prefabricated threaded hole in the post. The clamps were located on
each post at 8" and 32" from the bottom of the steel post base. The
two exterior posts used (2) clamps while the two interior posts used
(4) clamps. Each post was capped and glued with a saddle using Q-
Railing glue, part no. 19.1331.000.00. The top rail was attached to
the saddle using (2) 5mm x 15 mm Button Hex Socket Cap Screws.

ADDITIONAL GLASS TESTING
After the first sample was tested with 1/4"/0.060PVB/ 1/4" glass (Reference Test HETI-16-5089) with
glass clamp model 24, the glass was changed to 1/4"/0.060SGP/ 1/4" glass (Reference Test HETI-16-
5090) with glass clamp model 24. All glass specific testing was repeated on the same frame sample
with the new glass and original glass clamps installed. The following test results are with the
1/4"/0.060SGP/ 1/4" glass with glass clamp 24.

CONCLUSION
The test sample represented intended construction as indicated in the marked drawing. The sample was
tested and passed the requirements in accordance with provisions of FBC 2014, IBC 2015, for interior
and exterior application for all zones, and National Building Code of Canada 2015. For interior and
exterior application as per acceptance criteria AC439, and ASTM standards as described in this report.
The sample railing was intact and all hardware parts were securely in place at the conclusion of each
test. All tests were first performed on a single sample without glass or hardware replacement,
subsequently additional glass compositions were qualified by performing glass specific tests with
different glass but using the same hardware as indicated in the report with reference test number
HETI-16-5090.
NOTE: The above results were obtained using the designated test methods, which indicates
compliance with the performance requirements of the referenced specifications. This report does not
constitute certification of the specimens tested. The Test records are maintained for a period of ten
years and selected sample sections are maintained for a period of five year, and therefore this report
will expire after ten year of test date.

bottom of the glass lite. The glass clamps had a minimum glass bite
Of 1 1/2".
Substrate 4030 PSI Concrete.
Installation The (4) posts, 38" in length including the base, were installed onto the
concrete substrate with a minimum edge distance of 3 3/8" from the
edge using (3)1/2" x 5" masonry anchors, part no. 19.4310.125.12,
with Red Head EPCONA7 Screw Epoxy per post. Glass clamps were
attached to each post using (1) 8mm x 19mm Standard Hex Socket
Cap Screw, part no. 94.0680.820.14, which attached to a
prefabricated threaded hole in the post. The clamps were located on
each post at 8" and 32" from the bottom of the steel post base. The
two exterior posts used (2) clamps while the two interior posts used
(4) clamps. Each post was capped and glued with a saddle using Q-
Railing glue, part no. 19.1331.000.00. The top rail was attached to
the saddle using (2) 5mm x 15 mm Button Hex Socket Cap Screws.

TEST PROCEDURE
The test specimen as described in construction details was tested. The sample was impacted at
center of each glass with a 100-pound lead Impactor. The Impactor was constructed as specified in
ANSI Z97.1-1984 (R1994). The drop height and test results are summarized in table below.

CONCLUSION
The test sample represented intended construction as indicated in the marked drawing. The sample was
tested and passed the requirements in accordance with provisions of FBC 2014, IBC 2015, for interior
and exterior application for all zones, and National Building Code of Canada 2015. For interior and
exterior application as per acceptance criteria AC439, and ASTM standards as described in this report.
The sample railing was intact and all hardware parts were securely in place at the conclusion of each
test, except the steel nose pendulum impact test as per ASTM E2353-14, Section 13.4 were performed
with the glass replaced with same type of glass.
NOTE: The above results were obtained using the designated test methods, which indicates
compliance with the performance requirements of the referenced specifications. This report does not
constitute certification of the specimens tested. The Test records are maintained for a period of ten
years and selected sample sections are maintained for a period of five year, and therefore this report
will expire after ten year of test date.
