Install glazing and or panels into windows and doors, or conservatories, or curtain walling

This standard covers the installation of glazing and or panels into windows and doors, or conservatories, or curtain walling. These systems primarily relate to replacement windows and doors, conservatories, or curtain walling systems. The glazing and or panels have to be positioned and secured and sealed to ensure a weather tight fit in line with specifications. The work then has to be completed by checking that it meets all specifications and ensuring the customer's requirements have been met and that they understand usage.

This standard is for you if you work in the Fenestration and Glazing Industry and are involved in installing glazing and or panels.
