INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY / BIFORIUM

LARGE-FORMAT GLASS INSTALLATION

Large glass cannot simply be carried in. Its route from factory stillage to glazing blocks must be planned in kilograms, metres and a precise sequence.

LARGE-FORMAT GLASS INSTALLATION

CONTROL

Junction control points.

01

Mass and centre of gravity

Each unit’s mass, pick points and orientation during rotation are established.

02

Route

Gates, turns, slabs, scaffolding and crane position are checked before delivery.

03

Weather

Wind and rain can stop a lift, so a contingency is part of the plan.

04

Glazing placement

Blocks, edge clearance and retention are ready before the unit reaches the frame.
