Laminated Planar structural glass is ideally suited for horizontal applications. Glass panels are typically bonded together with Dupont’s SentryGlas Plus laminate, which allows the architect to have exposed edges. The glass panels can be silk screened before being laminated. Virtually any design can be accommodated. For more information on SentryGlas® Plus click here

The inherent design flexibility of Planar makes it an excellent system for canopy and roof applications. Exterior framing, that can become a maintenance problem or possibly cause future leaks, is not required.

  Fittings            Specifications and Performance Charts

The back-up structure is required to carry self weight, snow loads
where applicable, and to resist negative wind pressures through
the fixing locations.

Large spans are possible if underlying purlins are reinforced with cable tensioned rod-rigging. Planar canopies required a minimum slope of 3 degrees to eliminate ponding on the glass.

All back-up structures are available as a completely engineered sole source package for guaranteed performance of the complete canopy.
