A glazing system for a building comprising a glazing panel, a support and an attachment assembly for attaching the glazing panel to the support is disclosed. The attachment assembly comprises a mounting secured to the support and a glazing fitting secured to the glazing panel. The mounting comprises a mounting member and the glazing fitting comprises a hook portion and the mounting is connected to the glazing fitting by a connection between the hook portion and the mounting member. The attachment assembly further comprises a shock absorber that allows the attachment assembly to move relative to the support upon applying an impact to the glazing panel, thereby improving the impact resistance of the glazing panel. Mountings and fittings for use in such glazing systems are also disclosed, as are methods of improving the impact resistance of a suspended glazing panel.
L'invention concerne un système de vitrage pour une construction comprenant un panneau de vitrage, un support et un ensemble de fixation pour fixer le panneau de vitrage au support. L'ensemble de fixation comprend un montage attaché au support et une ferrure de vitrage fixée au panneau de vitrage. Le montage comprend un élément de montage et la ferrure de vitrage comprend une partie crochet. Le montage est relié à la ferrure de vitrage par un raccordement entre la partie crochet et l'élément de montage. L'ensemble de fixation comprend en outre un absorbeur de choc qui permet le déplacement de l'ensemble de fixation par rapport au support lors de l'application d'un impact sur le panneau de vitrage, améliorant ainsi la résistance à l'impact du panneau de vitrage. L'invention concerne également des montages et des ferrures destinés à être utilisés dans ces systèmes de vitrage, tout comme les procédés d'amélioration de la résistance à l'impact d'un panneau de vitrage suspendu.
