This European standard specifies a method to calculate the thickness of flat glass panes required to resist uniformly distributed actions (e.g. self-weight, wind and snow loads) acting normal to the glass pane. Particular solutions are given for: - rectangular glass panes which are simply supported on four, three and two opposite edges; - right-angled triangular and isosceles triangular glass panes which are simply supported on three edges; - and circular glass panes which are simply supported at the edge.
