McCoy’s Glass is one of the biggest independent glass

companies in South Africa and they are considered

Leaders in Glass. The company has gone from

strength to strength in the last 13 years, successfully servic-

ing South Africa from three warehouses. Their success can be

directly attributed to the fact that they are constantly looking

for new ways to become the best that the Glass Industry has

to offer, offering unparalleled service, delivery and world class

products all year round.

As Leaders in Glass, McCoy’s are known for taking the lead

in innovation in the South African Glass Industry, setting new

standards and making new inroads. With a passion to grow

the industry, the company directs new ways forward through

the implementation of fresh initiatives and new ideas, such

as their brand new McCoy’s Glass Website, which allows sup-

pliers to order glass online. This is definitely an industry first

and will change the image of the Glass Industry irrevocably.

McCoy’s have many industry “firsts” on their list, from bring-

ing you “Glass News Online” (an industry newsletter written

by McCoy’s), to being the founders of the very successful and

much talked about “Glass Expo Africa”, which is part of In-

terbuild, the largest building exhibition in Africa. McCoy’s also

proudly brings you this “Glass Guide”, which is considered

the handbook of the South African Glass Industry.

By investing in world class glass software, glass cutting,

processing and manufacturing technology – it comes as no

surprise that McCoy’s Glass are at the forefront of the Glass

Industry. Recognised as providing the quickest service in

the country, they supply stock sheets and cut to size in the

shortest of lead times and are seen as leaders in safety glass

manufacturing. From processed glass to bullet resistant glass,

toughened laminates to double-glazed units – McCoy’s sup-

ply it all. Instead of competing with their customers, McCoy’s

have also developed a call centre concept for the public. All

glass enquiries coming through the “McCoy’s Glass Solu-

tions” call centre are forwarded on to their customers, once

again showing how McCoy’s see the success and growth of

their customers as an absolute priority.

The glass guide

The Glass Guide, proudly brought to you by McCoy’s

- Leaders in Glass, is undoubtedly an industry initia-

tive that has helped the Glass Industry move forward

in leaps and bounds. Seen as the handbook of the Glass

Industry, The Glass Guide was developed by McCoy’s be-

cause they listen carefully to the needs of their clients and

they always strive to pull out all the stops when it comes to

customer satisfaction. The first edition of The Glass Guide,

containing comprehensive information on Glass and Alu-

minium products available in South Africa as well as glaz-

ing regulations and recommended glass solutions, was

definitely an industry first. It was received with open arms,

has established itself in the glass industry and is renowned

across South Africa.

As industry leaders, always striving to bring the best that the

Glass Industry has to offer, McCoy’s decided to improve on

The Glass Guide. The first edition has now been improved

on, and McCoy’s are proud to bring you this second edition

of The Glass Guide. As always, produced with the aim to

publish a handbook that provides the best, most cutting-

edge, consolidated and accurate information on all the prod-

ucts the industry deems important, this second edition of

The Glass Guide is set to be received with the same enthusi-

asm as the first edition.

Because McCoy’s are Leaders in Glass, they always aim to

make inroads in the Glass Industry and to go where no one

has ever gone before. The order glass online service, the

Glass Guide, and especially this second edition, is just a few

ways McCoy’s are trying to help you, as you help them, make

history in the Glass Industry.

Welcome to the second edition!

It comes as no surprise that McCoy’s are seen as Lead-ers in Glass and they will stop at nothing to make sure that they always bring the best that the Glass Industry

has to offer to their clients. Moreover, they make sure they do so first, repeatedly establishing themselves as industry pioneers. It is no different with the vast range of products that McCoy’s offer their clients – world class, because noth-ing else will do.

The core of McCoy’s business is to supply building glass, including clear float glass, patterned glass, tinted glass, mir-rors, laminated safety glass and toughened glass. They are leaders in the stock sheet market and are constantly setting new service levels in the cut to size market. McCoy’s are confident that they offer the most comprehensive range of stock sheet sizes and thicknesses available in South Africa and offer complete glass edge working facilities such as pol-ishing, bevelling and drilling.

As one of the largest independent glass companies in South Africa, McCoy’s are passionate about glass and passionate about people. McCoy’s currently operate in Johannesburg and Durban as well as from a branch in Port Elizabeth. Mc-Coy’s still do not, and will not, sell directly to the public as they feel it is unnecessary to compete with their customers.

McCoy’s supply a wide and diverse range of glass, from pro-cessed glass to bullet resistant glass, toughened laminates to double-glazed units. It is also important to note that the company’s McLam PVB laminated safety glass and McTough toughened safety glass meet the safety requirements of the National Building Regulations as defined by SABS 1263-1. McCoy’s success can be accredited to their dedication to giv-ing customers quality products, backed by professional ser-vice and competitive prices – whether you are ordering one piece of glass, or full containers of glass – they supply it all.

Guidelines to ensure optimum results with McPutty

Ensure that the frame is clean and dry and that all rust 1.

is removed.

Metal frames should be painted with a primer. Wooden 2.

windows must be sealed with a suitable wood sealer.

Please ensure that all applications are left to dry ac-

cording to manufacturer’s specifications.

Please do not add any chemicals such as turpentine 3.

or paraffin to the McPutty as the chemicals prevent it

from hardening and also cause cracking.

It is recommended that you use approximately 2kg of 4.

McPutty per m2 of glass.

Open the bag of McPutty and knead the McPutty until 5.

a uniform consistency is obtained.

Mix the McPutty with the catalyst (provided in the bag) 6.

as recommended. Split bag into four sections and add

1/4 of the catalyst to each 1/4 of McPutty.

Thorougly knead the McPutty to ensure that the cata-7.

lyst is mixed in properly.

If not all the McPutty is required at once, split the 8.

McPutty and catalyst proportionally into the required

amounts and mix according to the above instruc-

tions.

For back putty, do not add catalyst as the glass ex-9.

pands and contracts with heat and requires space to

move.

Apply the back putty evenly to the frame by hand, at a 10.

recommended thickness of 3mm.

When placing the pane of glass, apply pressure to the 11.

edges only. Please do not press in the centre.

The front holding putty is applied with a putty 12.

knife and finished off at an approximate angle of 60

degrees.

Allow at least 7 - 10 days for drying before painting.13.

The glazed McPutty should not be left unpainted for 14.

longer than 17 days, to prevent cracking.

PleasefollowthefollowingtipswheninstallingMcMirrors

Useful guide to the installation of McMirrors

Do ventilate room sufficiently prior

to and during installation

Do use an approved edge sealer on edges

of McMirror.

Do use only approved silicones and

mastics.

Do not secure the McMirror to an unpainted wall. Paint the

area behind the McMirror with a high gloss enamel

Do fit McMirror above the work surface around the baths or hand basins (not flush to

these areas), to avoid immer-sion of the edges in water.

Do allow for air circulation behind the McMirror

(6mm gap).

Do not seal the McMirror by tiling around it and

preventing air circulation behind the McMirror

Do paint the area behind the

McMirror with a high gloss enamel.

Do apply mastics (tape, glue) vertically,

to ensure moisture can escape freely.

Things to do when installing McMirrors

Things not to do when installing McMirrors

Ensure that the correct fitment procedures have been followed.•

To clean the McMirror, we recommend using a chamois leather dipped in warm water and methylated spirits.•

Do not use acidic or alkaline (ammonia based) cleaners.•

Do not use an abrasive cleaner such as steel wool on the face or back of the mirror, as it will scratch the glass or protective •

backing.

Do not apply cleaning fluid directly onto the face of the mirror as it could spill over the edge and onto the back of the mirror.•

McLam PVB Clear is currently the only laminated safety glass to carry a 20 year guarantee against manufacturing defects.

In addition to this product offering safety, it also provides pro-tection against UV, unwanted noise and protection against intruders.

Performance VariationsMcLam PVB Clear is available in three performance variations:1. Normal Strength (NS) - for human impact safety (0.38 mm PVB interlayer).2. High Penetration Resistant (HPR) - for additional security (0.76 mm PVB interlayer).3. High Impact (HI) - for security in high-risk applications (1.52 mm PVB interlayer).

TestingMcLam PVB Clear is tested by repeatedly dropping a 225g steel ball from a height of 9 metres. The impact of each drop is approximately equivalent to the blow from a hammer. The table shows the number of blows required to penetrate the glass.

NB. The size of the hole at penetration point is approximately 50 mm in diameter. Many more blows are required to gain access.

McTough, toughened safety glass is ideal for bolted structural glazing and frameless applications. McTough has excellent resistance to thermal stress which makes it ideal to be used in applications such as refrigerator and oven doors, where ordinary annealed glass is likely to fracture.

McTough is available in a range of various thicknesses and colours. McTough meets the safety glass require-ments of the South African National Building regula-tions.

ColoursColours available include Clear, Grey, Bronze and Green.

Patterned Glass McTough is available in selected McObscure patterns.

Sizes and ThicknessMcTough is available in thickness from 4 mm to 19 mm. The maximum parameters of a piece of McTough that can be processed is 3600 mm x 2000 mm. This is de-pendent on the thickness of the glass, application, raw glass sheet size available and Glazing Regulations.Different maximum sizes apply to various colours, thickness and patterns.Recommended maximum size will depend on applica-tion and design load.

McTough

McToughLam is a product which combines the strength and safety of McTough, toughened safety glass with the advantages of safety, sound control and solar control of McLam laminated safety glass.

McToughLam is manufactured by bonding polyvi-nyl butyral (PVB) interlayers between two pieces of McTough, toughened safety glass. This product is available in various thickness and colours.

McToughLam can be a sided product, meaning that its appearance may vary when viewed from different sides.

The maximum parameters of a piece of McToughLam that can be manu-factured is 3600 x 2000 mm, but this is dependent on thickness of glass, application, raw glass sheet size availability and Glazing Regula-tions.

McSIG double glazed units are manufactured from two or more panes of glass held apart by a metal spacer and bonded with a primary and secondary seal. Dehydrated air is trapped between the glass panes.

McSIG is available in glass combinations that offer a wide range of performance characteristics and appearances.

Clear McSIG is almost transparent to radiant solar heat, but solar control can be enhanced by replacing the outer glass with a suitable performance glass. McSIG units incorpo-rating glass from the McE Range provide the best thermal insulation.

A thermal stress evaluation must be requested when glass with a heat absorption is utilised in the unit. Temperature and atmospheric pressure fluctuations are likely to cause distorted reflections when a reflective glass is incorporated in McSIG.

Thickness and weight of units depends on thickness of glass used.

Holes

All glass thicknesses from 4 mm to 19 mm can be drilled •and holes are available in diameters of up to 75 mm, but may not have a minimum diameter less than the thick-ness of the glass.It is also not recommended that holes smaller than 6 •mm be specified, and enquiries for holes larger than 75mm should be submitted to McCoy’s.The proximity of holes to glass edges must not be less •than indicated, where the distance is 1.5t and the dis-tance y is 4t, where t = glass thickness.(See diagrams 1 and 2)•In the case of a rounded corner, the dimension y is de-•termined as shown and increased to 5t. In this instance, x must remain as no less than 1.5t but x shall be at least 1/3W where W = width of glass. (See diagram 3)Holes should be spaced to provide a minimum distance •from each hole edge of 4t, where t = glass thickness. (See diagram 4)It is essential to ensure that all glass, including McTough •toughened safety glass, is fully isolated from any metal, such as framing or bolts.In the case of bolting, the glass plate is secured by a •clamping action opposed to the bolt itself. For this reason, isolation in the form of non-compressible fibre or similar grommets must be provided and this should be consid-ered when finalising bolt sizes and hole diameters. The maximum number of holes per plate is 24 and only •two different diameters can be drilled on the same plate.

Hole tolerances

Positioning is subject to a tolerance of ± 1.0 mm. The •tolerance on hole diameters up to 25 mm is -0 + 1.0 mm.Where more than one hole is to be positioned, the distance •between holes is subject to a tolerance of ± 1.0 mm.All holes are suitably finished.•

Notches

Many configurations of notches may be supplied, but due to the balanced stresses set up in McTough toughened glass, it is essential that design proposals be submitted to McCoy’s for technical assistance and to avoid possible failure in service.

The following guidelines should be considered when pre-paring design proposals:

Re-entrant corners of notches cannot be sharp and •must have a radius at least equal to the thickness of the glass, but generally not less than 10 mm. This require-ment is subject to application and where a lesser radius is required, details should be discussed with McCoy’s.All other corners would be prepared as R1, R2 or R3 •and the same minimum radius limitations would apply. (See diagram 1 below)The dimension Y should be 75 mm or greater. (See dia-•gram 1)Special pay notches should have a minimum corner ra-•dius of 25 mm, including general tolerances. (See dia-gram 2)Speech apertures may be circular, semi-circular or rect-•angular.In the case of circles, standard diameters are 100 mm, •150 mm and 200 mm.In the case of semi-circles, extended semi-circles and •rectangles, the dimension A must be a minimum of 50 mm for 6 mm thickness, and 75 mm for 10 mm and thicker substances. Radius corners must be no less than 12 mm. The semi-circle must have a radius of not less than 50 mm. (See diagram 3)

Generally tolerances vary with requirements and are subject to negotiation. However, the following may serve as a design guideline.Notch dimensional tolerances: + 1/-0 mmPosition of notch relative to true position: ± 1 mm

Method of measurement: Departure from flatness

Small glasses (largest dimension < 1.0 m)

The glass shall be placed on a flat surface without any •pressure other than light finger pressure to steady the glass.The maximum departure from the checking surface shall •be measured using a wedge gauge passed between the glass and the checking surface.The nearest point of contact shall be determined by •means of a 0.1 mm feeler gauge or similar.

Interpretation

The rate of departure from flatness must not exceed the amount stated in the specification for each thickness.

The nature of the toughening process is such that perfectly flat glass cannot be produced. The deviation depends on thickness, size, aspect ratio and other factors. This feature is kept within commercially accepted limits. The following table sets out the re-quired manufacturing limits:

ArrissedThis is the simplest type of edge finish and consists of remov-ing the sharp edges of clean cut glass.

Standard Profile (Polished)In this form, the edge of the glass is machined to the shape shown. It is applied to glass thicknesses up to and including 6 mm.

Flatground (Polished)A machine edge of flat form as shown, which can either have a ground or bright polished finish.

Choosing the Right Products

26


Recommending the best-suited glass for the right

application is something that McCoy’s pride them-

selves on. They have a combined experience of over

70 years in the market sector and this gives them the con-

fidence to pass on their knowledge, helping their clients to

lection of the correct glass to use in each individual applica-

tion – and this service sets them apart even more, because

where else would you find someone that is willing to share all

their knowledge with you? Only at McCoy’s.

Needless to say, the type of advice that McCoy’s give their

clients regarding what type of glass to use for a particular

application, is very much dependant on the intended use of

a given space. It’s McCoy’s business to know what type of

glass that is, and it is their pleasure to share this knowledge

with their clients.

McCoy’s are confident that in the pages that follow, you will

find all the information that you need. If not – feel free to call

McCoy’s to be professionally assisted.

Performance chart

Light Transmission & Shading Coefficient

Glass Selection

As different types of glass are better suited to different ap-plications, the intended use of space must be taken into account when selecting glass. In assessing the performance and suitability of glass for a specific application, two key measures to consider are shading coefficient and visible light transmission.

Shading Coefficient

The ratio of total solar energy transmission of a glass compared to the total solar energy transmission of ordinary 3 mm glass (calculated to ASHRAE summer conditions). The higher the shading coefficient, the more solar heat is allowed into the build-ing. This measurement is dependent on environmental factors such as wind, as well as the temperature inside and outside.

Visible Light Transmission

The percentage of visible light transmitted through the glass when the sun shines at right angles to the surface of the glass. Higher visible light transmission makes a building look more transparent from the outside, and makes the interior lighter and airier, increasing the productivity of retail and educational spaces. However, high light transmission may detract from the restfulness of a space and reduce office productivity by increasing glare on work surfaces and walls, and reducing visibility of computer and TV screens.

Glazing Regulations

As with any other business or industry, there are rules

and regulations that need to be followed. These are

primarily put in place to ensure that everyone, espe-

cially the end user, is protected.

For example, there are stringent policies and procedures to

follow with regards to the way individual products are in-

stalled, and the National Building Regulations determine

the way in which all reputable companies operating in the

building industry have to conduct their business. For safety’s

sake, products have to be durable enough and robust in

form to withstand and oppose certain pressures that are put

upon them. This is, however, all predetermined.

In most industries, an industry body exists to ensure that its

members adhere to industry best practices in terms of their

products and what the law stipulates. McCoy’s are accountable

to SAGGA: The South African Glass and Glazing Association.

McCoy’s is a proud and committed corporate member of

SAGGA and industry-leading standards are maintained in

their products and services. They know that to be Leaders

in Glass, you have to be accountable to the best body that

currently exists in the Glass Industry.

SAGGA can be contacted on (011) 805 5002.

In this Guide we have included the latest abridged guide-

lines published by AAAMSA and SAGGA on SANS 10400-N:

2010 Edition 3 Glazing.

The comprehensive regulations that follow should prove self-

explanatory and comprehensive, but if you have any queries

in this regard, please do not hesitate to contact McCoy’s.

H) Horizontally slidingsix blocks to each pane

I) Veritally sliding

Before placing the glazing pane in the surround, where nec-essary push setting blocks into position (when applicable, in the glazing compound) on the rebate platform. With the exception of panes of area not exceeding 0.3m2, rest the glazing pane on setting blocks to centralise it within the sur-round. Use blocks of length 25 mm to 75 mm, except at the bottom bar of vertically pivoted windows, where a single

block of length at least 150 mm is sufficient. Use location blocks also in opeanable windows to prevent distortion of the frame. Position setting and location blocks for glazing as shown in Figure 8. Setting and location blocks should be of a material that is compatible with the glazing materials and sealants used and should be of hardness 500 to 900 Shore A durometer.

Note: Timber and masonite setting blocks are unnacceptable as they are not compatible with glazing material. They are not of a suitable shore hardness, they rot and are eaten by insects.

The following are AAAMSA/SAGGA recommendations for the application of safety glazing materials in balustrading. It is mandatory that any balustrade design is confirmed through testing, or is structurally designed by a competent person, structural engineer having the appropriate professional indemnity insurance for compliance with the structural requirements of SANS 10160.

A balustrade guarding the edge of any balcony, bridge, flat roof or similar place more than 1m above the adjacent

ground or floor level shall not be less than 1m in height and shall not have any opening that permits the passage of a 100 mm diameter ball. These requirements also apply to any interior balcony or any mezzanine floor (SANS 10400 - Part D).

Balustrading guarding a swimming pool or swimming bath shall not be less that 1,2m high measured from the ground level, and shall not contain any opening which will permit the passage of a 100 mm diameter ball (SANS 10400 - Part D).

National building regulations

Part N: Glazing

N I Type and Fixing of Glazing

Any material used in the glazing of any building shall 1. be of a secure and durable type and shall be fixed in a manner and position that will ensure that it will -

(a) safely sustain any wind actions which can reasonably be expected; (b) not allow penetration of water to the interior of the building; and (c) be apparent, in the case of clear glazing, to any person approaching the glazing.

2. Glass, plastics and organic coated glass shall be selected in order to provide, in the case of human impact, a degree of safety appropriate in relation to - (a) the position of the glazed area; and (b) the number and likely behaviour patterns of persons expected to be in close proximity to such a glazed area.

3. The requirement of sub-regulations (1) and (2) shall be deemed to be satisfied where the glazing material is selected, fixed and marked in accordance with SANS 10400-N.

Glazing installations

4. Glazing materials shall comprise either glass that complies with the requirements of parts 1 to 5 of SANS 50572, or polycarbonate sheeting.

5. Frames to receive glazing material shall either comply with the requirements of SANS 727 or SANS 1553-2, or be capable of withstanding the wind and impact loads determined in accordance with the requirements of SANS 10400-B without deflecting more than 1/175th of their span.

6. The thickness of panes of glass and flat solid polycarbonate sheeting, other than in lifts, shall a) be not less than that given in tables 1 to 6, or b) be determined by a competent person (glazing) in accordance with the requirements of SANS 10137, or c) be based on wind loads determined in accordance with the requirements of SANS 10400-B.

Note: SANS 10400-B requires that wind loads be determined by a competent person (structures).

7. The top and bottom of glass fins (see figure 1) installed at butt joints of glass panes shall be fully fixed to the supporting structure and have overall dimensions as given in table 7. Silicone sealant that has a tensile strength of at least 1 MPa shall be used.

Note: A butt joint is assumed to have no structural strength. Therefore panels which incorporate a butt joint are not con-sidered to be supported on all sides. A glass fin is neces-sary to provide the support at the joint so that the pane can be considered to be supported on four sides or on two opposite sides.

McCoy’s Glass are Leaders in Glass, but are not lim-

ited in any way to glass only, as they realise that

standard aluminium finished products are starting

to play a bigger role in their business. They are and do remain

a glass company focussed primarily on glass, but wish to offer

their clients a full spectrum of Glass Industry related prod-

ucts. This is just another way that McCoy’s make the lives of

their customers simpler and more convenient.

As part of their commitment to bring clients the best that the

Glass Industry has to offer in its entirety, McCoy’s developed

the McCoy’s Aluminium Products offering, supplying the al-

ready well-known McDoor aluminium finished products to the

Glass Industry.

As with glass, McCoy’s key business goal is to deliver qual-

ity aluminium products, on time (every time), together with

your glass. In that regard, McCoy’s are also wholesalers of

aluminium-finished goods such as standard showers, patio

doors and windows.

McCoy’s are firm believers that new product innovations will

drive their Aluminium Standard Products range even further

forward and they are always expecting further expansions to

happen in the future – watch this space!

Just like their glass philosophy, McCoy’s commitment and goal is

to meet their customer’s aluminium needs and to provide stan-

dard products in the shortest time, with the greatest efficiency.

You can view a comprehensive list of McCoy’s Standard Alu-

minium Products on the following pages.

Remember, if you want quality products at a competitive
