This volume explores the technology of glass and its relationship with the building occupant. Glass fulfils many functions in addition to its traditional daylighting role - it has thermal, mechanical and protective properties. The nature and performance of glass in buildings are explained in detail so that architects, designers and specifiers can be made aware of its potential and can approach its specification with added understanding.
