Michael Crossley Consult Ltd Glass & Glazing Audits

Glass & Glazing Audits

In todays society where litigation, customer safety and even bad press are growing concerns, Glazing audits provide the protection to avoid an unfortunate event.

We provide glazing audits that are undertaken by glazing specialists and would establish the nature and condition of all internal and external glazing complete with associated framing. We identify if the glazing stock meets current and likely future requirements along with any non-compliances.

We have been conducting glazing audits over the past 3 years to various occupancy buildings, operated by a range of organisations from councils, Airports through to shops.

The audits can review the glazing for a number of applications including: -

  • Counter terrorism (bomb blast) risk to personnel
  • Physical security rating
  • Glazing type and condition
  • Nature and condition of applied films for safety, security and solar shading
  • Spontaneous breakage: risk of nickel sulphide attack
  • Disability discrimination act (DDA) compliance
  • Safety and human impact and other Building Regulation issues
  • Durability and life expectancy
  • Thermal/Insulation properties Acoustic performance
  • Overhead and atria glazing

We provide an easy to read report incorporating a photographic record that identifies any non-compliances and provides a list of recommendations for remediation. Attention will be drawn to those items requiring immediate action and those of a less urgent nature that could be incorporated into a maintenance regime.

Clients in the last two years include international petrochemical corporations, high street shopping chains, Airports, law firm premises and county councils.
