Technical Data
Sizes available: Each project is manufactured
per the project specifications — in turn, all
panels are custom made. (Standard sizes
available.)
Thickness: Thickness and make-up varies
by project. Once we review your project
we can suggest a make-up for you. (The
standard make-up is 3 lites of 3/8” glass
for a total thickness of approx. 1-1/4”.)
Product type: Laminated fully tempered glass
is utilized for strength. Per the new ASTM
code, all glass flooring products — both
panels and treads — have to be made out of
a minimum of 3 pieces of glass per panel.
Standard supports are typically continuous on two sides or on all edges. Additional support in the
middle may be used on longer spans.
Custom designs and non-standard support systems (point supported) must be individually designed.
All projects require a structural review from a structural engineer AND a glass engineer. (Engineering
and design services are available.)
Structural Support Methods
*Silicone used should be compatible with laminated glass. The adhesion ability of silicone to metal must be tested by the contractor/customer.

Structural Support
Structural Support Methods
There are numerous options available to safely support glass flooring
panels. Each project is different and in turn each project requires
proper review to ensure safety. Our preferred support system is
four-sided because of the high safety level involved — but this
does not mean other options are not safe.
Safety is of the utmost importance and at
Jockimo we engineer the glass specifically
for your project with your project’s
specifications. Jockimo is the only
manufacturer that will provide you
with an engineering analysis
pdf of your glass project from
our structural engineer — who
is a glass specialist. (Engineering
and design services available.)
