Temper will be stronger for the same thickness, and more expensive. If you want laminated you need much thicker glass to have similar strength of tempered.
Most railing glass i see use tempered.

QUOTE(enriquelee @ Aug 27 2011, 10:36 AM) You are right. Depend what kind of safety we talking. When lami glass break, it will cut easily, and strength are much lower compare to tempered. You notice shopping center will use tempered glass for most of the area like escalator, walk way etc. To add on, glasses all have a tendency of self breaking. About 2% if not mistaken. Thus, if TS main concern is safety of kids. Go straight to laminated glass as for the above reason. If you want strength and safety, put tempered + tint, but will be very expensive. |
