Balcony tempered window glass shattered will not soon fall, but there is certainly a security risk, must be the first time to contact maintenance personnel to replace the glass, or fall on the life of the people in the community threatened. In fact, many people are confused why the balcony tempered window glass will break on its own, divided into man-made and natural factors.
1, the balcony tempered window glass broken will not fall
Tempered glass is not easy to fall after shattering material on the window, but if the impact is too great, it will fall down. When the glass is damaged by external forces, the fragments will become small honeycomb-shaped blunt-angled particles, which are not easy to cause serious injury to humans.
Tempered glass belongs to safety glass. Tempered glass is actually a kind of pre-stressed glass, in order to improve the strength of the glass, usually using chemical or physical methods to form compressive stress on the surface of the glass, when the glass is subjected to external forces, the surface stress is first eliminated, thus increasing the load-bearing capacity and improving the resistance of the glass itself, cold and heat, impact, etc.
2、What is the reason for the broken glass of the tempered windows of the balcony
Under normal circumstances, the self-explosion rate of tempered glass in the national quality standard of three out of ten thousand, which is quite normal. Some are affected by external forces, some by hot and cold air, some by their own influence.
The breakage of tempered glass in balconies is related to many factors, such as human influence, accidents and irregular installations. To avoid the tempered glass spontaneous explosion, in addition to regular replacement of their own glass, but also need to pay attention to maintenance, pay attention to the surrounding temperature, vibration and other conditions, and consider taking some other protective measures to avoid the danger.
3、Should the window be closed when there is a strong wind
When there are high winds, the windows of high-rise buildings should be closed. High-rise buildings are usually made of stainless steel and good quality. In general, the windows should be closed when there is a high wind.
There are different ways to deal with different situations: people can open them when they are at home and unload some of the wind, and it is better to close them when they are not at home; from the manufacturing process of windows, sliding windows are more suitable for closing, and casement windows are more suitable for opening.
