About this file
This is a Technical Specifications document for glazing work at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, issued in April 2019.
The specification establishes comprehensive requirements for the fabrication and installation of glazing systems, including various glass types, insulating glass units, setting and sealing materials, and accessories. Required glass products include clear glass, annealed glass, heat-absorbing glass, wired glass, patterned glass, laminated glass, bullet-resisting glass, mirrors, one-way vision glass, tempered glass, heat-strengthened glass, spandrel glass, and fire/safety rated glass, with specific ASTM standards and quality grades designated for each type. For control tower applications, specialized insulating glass units and laminated glass are required to meet wind load design requirements per ASCE 7, with dual-seal construction, specific spacer materials, and capillary tubes for pressure equalization. Setting and sealing materials must comply with GANA and IGMA guidelines, including elastomeric sealants per ASTM C920, structural sealants per ASTM C1184, preformed channels, sealing tapes, neoprene setting blocks, and glazing gaskets. All materials must be delivered in unopened containers and stored in safe, dry locations. Glazing work cannot commence until outdoor temperatures exceed 40 degrees Fahrenheit unless manufacturer-approved warming procedures are implemented.
Manufacturer warranties are mandatory, including 10-year coverage for insulating glass units against hermetic seal failure and 5 to 10-year coverage for polycarbonate sheets depending on type. Installation must conform to manufacturer instructions and applicable standards, with specific provisions for control tower windows requiring resilient setting blocks, spring clips, neoprene edging, and stress prevention measures. All glass surfaces must be cleaned prior to acceptance, and broken or damaged units must be replaced. Shop drawings, product data, samples, certificates, and manufacturer's instructions must be submitted for government approval where designated with a "G" designation.
