Fire resistant glazing is a high tech product but it has its price. In some cases, for instance for buildings near transport routes of petrochemical products, large areas of façade have to be able to withstand heat from large pool fires in order to allow for the safe evacuation of these buildings. This paper will explain the loads of fire resistant glazing tested according to European standards and will compare these loads to facades exposed to pool fires. It will show an example of building developments near rail and waterways that led to research on a low budget solution to fireproof facades without using fire resistant glazing and will also show the results of this research.
