The glass may be installed in the base shoe using either wet glazing cement or the Taper -Loco System Dry -Glaze as detailed in this report. The system is intended for interior and exterior weather exposed applications and is suitable for use in most natural environments. The GRS may be used for residential, commercial and industrial applications except for vehicle impacts. The GRS is designed for the following: On Cap/Top/Grab Rail: Concentrated load = 2001bs any direction, any location EVIEWE� FOR Uniform load = 50 plf, any direction perpendicular to ra� On In -fill Panels: ;ODE COMPLIANCE Concentrated load = 50# on one sf. ST. LUCIE COUNTY Distributed load = 25 psf on area of in -fill, including spaces Wind load = As stated for the application and components (ASD 1 vel) The GRS system will meet all applicable requirements of the 2012 and 2009 International Building Code and state codes adopted from them, 2010 and 2013 California Building Code, Florida Building Code, and 2012 and 2009 International Residential Code. The GRS System complies with ASTM E 2358-04 Standard Specification for the Performance of Glass in Permanent Glass Railing Systems, Guards, and Balustrades. Aluminum components are designed in accordance with the 2005 Aluminum Design Manual. Stainless steel components are designed in accordance with SEI/ASCE 8-02 Specification for the Design of Cold -Formed Stainless Steel Structural Members. Wood components are designed in accordance with the National Design Specification for Wood Construction. Glass lights are designed in accordance with AAMA CW 12-84 Structural Properties of Glass. When constructed as recommended the guards will meet the testing requirements of ICC AC 439 Acceptance Criteria for Glass Railing and Balustrade System, ASTM E-2353-06 Standard Test Methods for Performance of Glass in Permanent Glass Railing Systems, Guards and Balustrades. This report is in support of the the approval of the system in ESR-3269. EDWARD C.

For a complete code compliant installation an appropriate cap/top rail or grab rail shall be installed, refer to the Glass Rail System Cap Rails and Grab Rails report for design information on the cap rails and grab rails. In accordance with -IBC 1607:8.1 guard live loads are not to be combined with other transient loads such as wind loads. Wind loads, seismic loads and live loads may be considered separately and independently. Dead loads are to be considered when acting cumulatively with a transient load condition. For installations covered in this report dead load effects are negligible and are typically ignored.

Laurence Glass Rail System (GRS) and Taper -Loco 06/19/2014 GLASS BALUSTRADE GUARD RAIL GLASS STRENGTH All glass is fully tempered glass conforming to the specifications of ANSI Z97.1, ASTM C 1048-04 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201. For fully tempered glass the average Modulus of Rupture Fr is 24,000 psi. The Safety Factor of 4.0 used herein is based on IBC Section 2407 and is applicable to live loads only. Wind load stress may be increased in accordance with IBC 2404.1 and ASTM El300 to a maximum allowable edge stress of 10,600 psi (9,600 psi recommended for most installations). Glass lights serve as balusters to support the top rail or grab rail and form the guard infill. Allowable glass bending stress: 24,000/4 = 6,000 psi. — Tension stress calculated from live loads.

ASTM E 2358-04 limits deflection to h/12 (3.5" for 42" guard height). For comfort level it is recommended to limit deflection to 1" for 42" guard height. The IBC has no defined deflection limit. For glass wet glazed in base shoe stress is uniform across light. For the Taper -Loco system the stress may be assumed as uniform as demonstrated later in this report. EDWARD C.

Laurence Glass Rail System (GRS) and Taper-Loc@ 06/19/2014 Page 17 of 55 WIND BORNE DEBRIS Glass Guards located in Wind -Borne Debris Region - IBC 1609.2 When design for large missile impact loading as described in ASTM E 1996 to comply with IBC 1609.1.2 or Test Protocol Test Application Standard (TAS) 201-94 to comply with Florida Building Code Section 1626 is required laboratory testing may be required to verify system performance. Typically 3/4" or thicker laminated tempered glass is required to resist the missile --impact-for 42"-guard height. The need for compliance with these tests is dependent on the local jurisdiction and is beyond the scope of this report. Typically since the guards are not part of the building envelope the testing is not required but when located within a wind-borne debris region consultation with the local code authority is recommended before specifying a specific glass section and the appropriate base shoe. GLASS LIGHT SPACING Glass light spacing must be adequate to assure that no direct contact occurs between the glass edges from either differential glass deflections or thermal expansion. Thermal Expansion of glass: v = 5x10-6 in/(in F') For a typical 150F' maximum temperature range and 72" maximum glass light length: 8 = 5x10-6 in/(in F°)* 150F°*72" = 0.054" Recommended minimum specified spacing is 1/4" (%" for''/a" glass). Glass fabrication tolerances may result in spacing smaller than specified. As -installed spacing less than 0.054" is unacceptable and should not be permitted. GLASS FLATNESS ASTM C 1048 Heat Treated Flat Glass - Kind HS, Kind FT Coated and Uncoated Glass allows 0.08" bow for 35" to 47" width. Installer should try to align bows to reduce the misfit between lights. Out of plane variation between glass lights is unavoidable but may be reduced by specifying vertically treated glass and installing glass with the tong marks inserted into the base shoe. EDWARD C.

The glass is locked in place by the compressive forces created by the Taper -Loco shim plates being compressed together by the installation tool. Use of the calibrated installation tool assures that the proper compressive forces are developed. Until the shim plates are fully installed the glass may be moved within the base shoe for adjustment. Glass may be extracted by reversing the installation tool to extract tapers. EDWARD C.

Use of other post installed anchors or different embedment conditions require calculations for the specific condition.

Laurence Glass Rail System (GRS) and Taper-Loc® 06/19/2014 Page 50 of 55 SURFACE MOUNTING BASE SHOES TO WOOD DECKS: The base shoe overturning resistance develops by forming a couple between the anchor tension and compression between the base shoe edge and the substrate. Wood doesn't have adequate bearing compressive strength to reliably develop the requisite compressive strength when surface mounted. The shoe may be initially installed tight and appear to perform adequately; but cyclic loading will cause permanent deformation of the wood surface and loss of anchor pretension. This will result in rotation of the base shoe and increased couple forces resulting in excessive guard -deflections and possible faildre. For this reason the base shoes should not be surface mounted directly to wood when moment exceeds 1,000"#/ft. It is recommended that whenever possible the base shoe should use the fascia mount when attaching to wood. When surface mounting to wood a steel or aluminum bar or angle may be installed on the wood surface first. The bar or angle shall be designed to safely transfer the imposed loads from the base shoe to the wood deck. Attachment to the bar or angle shall be as specified previously. Steel angle Base Shoe or plate bolted to wood deck Weld Block with base shoe Steel Plate by Others anchored to the plate or angle using 1/2" cap screws into threaded weld blocks or tapped holes.

For glass stress and live loads: When glass height is 5 50" then;6" glass may be used for live loads. When glass height is 5 64" may use %" glass. When glass height is 5 77" may use 3/a" glass. At the maximum heights deflections will control. Recommend limiting glass heights to: hg 5 48" for W' glass hg s 56" for %" HEIGH GLASS hg s 64" for 3/a" Verify glass thickness for wind of loading. eaSESN Check base shoe anchorage using the appropriate mounting type and base shoe. Irregular glass light shapes or intermittent base shoes are outside of the scope of this report. EDWARD C.
