Fire classified floor glass
Today maximum utilisation of natural light is recognised as beneficial to general well-being and is a key consideration in the design and construction of new buildings or the refurbishment of existing buildings. DEKO HG Fire floor glass is a visually exciting solution if you want to spread daylight to several floors. The large glazed modules create a decorative element in a uniform floor and introduce light to parts of the building where this was not previously possible.
Large glass floors and fireproof steel structure
In order to meet the statutory requirements for fire resistance and loading capacity, DEKO HG Fire’s fire rated glazed elements are fitted on a matching fireproof steel structure built into the existing floor. The glazed elements and the steel structure are tailored individually to each project. The glazed elements in sizes up to approximately 2 sqm are either fitted as single glazed elements or as several elements in line with each other supported by the L- and T-profiles of the steel structure.
Fire- and soundproof
DEKO HG Fire has been approved as both REI 30 and REI 60 structures, but can, if required, be made of laminated glass without fire classification. DEKO HG Fire structure provides a high sound reduction of approximately Rw 55 dB. Due to its high loading capacity of up to 5kN/m², fire classification and sound reduction, DEKO HG Fire can be used everywhere in all company types and in the public sector, such as in institutions, schools and hospitals.
Decoration
As standard floor glass is supplied with a border of black graphics to conceal the perimeter steel framwork. For safety reasons, the glazed elements can be supplied with anti-slip film in various patterns and colours across the entire surface.
