FP of existing windows and doors

The Solution:

• GGDS mechanical anchoring system comprising GGDS 350-micron window film was live tested against a blast of 19.92 Psi (Reflected Pressure) and 92 Psi*Msec (Reflected Impulse) and conformed to a Performance condition level- 2 according to the GSA Test Protocol: GSA-TS01-2003 – Protection level very High, Hazard Level – None.

The Method:

• The mechanical anchoring system embraces the 350-micron window film while being mechanically connected by screws to the curtain wall or to the window profile.
• In this way, the protective coatings won’t be thrown into the room under blast, by spreading the energy and transferring it equally to the window profile. When requires, our company reinforces also the connection of the window profile itself to the building with special unique fasteners to avoid its collapse in higher blast level.

Protection Section:

• GGDS mechanical anchoring system comprise 3 aluminum profiles that are powder coated to match the Ral color of the existing window in order to fit it esthetically.
