Foreword
Articles 5.5, 5.6 and 5.7 in this part are compulsory and the rest are voluntary.
At present, "Safety Glazing Materials in Building" (GB 15763) is divided into two parts.
- Part 1. fire-resistant glass;
- Part 2. tempered glass.
This part is Part 2 of GB 15763.
This part replaces "Tempered Glass" (GB/T 9963-1998) and the relevant requirements for
tempered glass used in curtain wall in "Tempered and Heat-strengthened Glass Used in
Curtain Walls" (GB 17841-1999).
Compared with GB/T 9963-1998, the main changes in this part are as follows.
- the methods and requirements for fragmentation test were modified;
- the requirements for normative references were revised as. the dated and undated
normative references were differentiated (Chapter 2 in GB/T 9963-1998, Chapter 2 in
this part);
- the classification of vertical method tempered glass and horizontal method tempered
glass was added (Chapter 3 in this part);
- the requirements for surface stress and thermal shock resistance performance of
tempered glass used in curtain wall specified in GB 17841-1999 were adopted; the
requirements for surface stress were modified (Articles 5.4.1, 5.4.3, Sections 6.4 and
6.6 in GB 17841-1999; Sections 5.8, 5.11, 6.8 and 6.9 in this part);
- the requirements for the dimension of the glass round hole were added (Article 5.1.5 in
this part);
- the requirements for appearance quality were modified;
- the methods and requirements of transmittance and wind load resistance performance
were deleted or reduced;
- the sampling rule was modified;
- the explanation for stress spot and spontaneous explosion of tempered glass was added
(Appendix A in this part).
Appendix A of this part is informative.
This part was proposed by China Building Material Industry Association.
This part is under the jurisdiction of National Technical Committee on Glass in Building of
Standardization Administration of China.

wall in GB 17841-1999.
Safety Glazing Materials in Building –
Part 2. Tempered Glass
1 Scope
This part of GB 15763 specifies the classification, technical requirements, test methods and
inspection rules of the tempered glass which is used in building and is fabricated by heat
treatment process.
This part of GB 15763 is applicable to the tempered glass which is used in building and is
fabricated by heat treatment process. As for tempered glasses for other purposes other than
building (such as industrial equipment, furniture, etc.), if there is no corresponding product
standard, this standard may be adopted by reference according to their product features.
2 Normative References
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this part, constitute
provisions of this part. For dated reference, subsequent amendments (excluding corrections),
or revisions of any of these publications do not apply. However, the parties who enter into
agreement based on this part are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the
most recent editions of the standards. For undated references, the latest edition of the
normative document referred to applies.
GB 9962-1999 Laminated Glass
GB 11614 Float Glass
GB/T 18144 Test Method for Measurement of Stress in Glass
3 Definition and Classification
3.1 Definition
Tempered glass. it refers to the glass undergone heat treatment process. It is characterized by
a compressive stress layer formed on its surface. Its mechanical strength and thermal shock
resistance strength are improved. And it has special characteristics of fragmentation.
3.2 Classification
3.2.1 Tempered glass may be classified into the following types by production process.
Tempered glass fabricated with vertical method. the tempered glass fabricated by method of
clamping and hanging, during the tempering process.
Tempered glass fabricated with horizontal method. the tempered glass fabricated by method
of horizontal roller support, during the tempering process.
Take 4 flat pattern glass specimens for test. 1 of the following items 1) or 2)) shall be met.
1) When the glass is broken, the total mass of the top-10 big fragments of each
specimen shall not exceed the mass of specimen in 65cm2 area. And the length of
any glass fragment which has no through-crack and is retained in frame shall not
exceed 120mm.
2) When the drop height of the bag is 1200mm, the specimen shall not be broken.
5.8 Surface stress
The surface stress of tempered glass shall not be less than 90MPa.
Take 3 specimens for test. It is deemed as qualified if all specimens meet the requirements. It
is deemed as unqualified if there are 2 specimens failing to meet the requirements. If 2
specimens meet the requirements, take another 3 specimens for test. and it is deemed as
qualified if all specimens meet the requirements.
5.9 Thermal shock resistance performance
Tempered glass shall be capable of withstanding a temperature difference of 200ºC without
damage.
Take 4 specimens for test. The performance is deemed as qualified if all the 4 specimens meet
the requirements. It is deemed as unqualified if there are more than 2 specimens failing to
meet the requirements. If 1 specimen fails to meet the requirements, take additional 1
specimen for test. And the performance is deemed as qualified if the specimen meets the
requirements. If 2 specimens fail to meet the requirements, take another 4 specimens for test,
and the performance is deemed as qualified if all the 4 specimens meet the requirements.
6 Test Method
6.1 Dimension inspection
Dimensions shall be measured with the straight steel ruler or steel tape (the minimum scale is
1mm).
6.2 Thickness inspection
Use outside micrometer or the tool with equivalent accuracy, measurement at midpoints of
the 4 sides at 15mm away from the glass sides. Arithmetic average of ...
