QUOTE(tiensong @ Feb 27 2012, 12:02 AM) wah...tempered glass ar...i also love to but the price is more than double of polycarbonate...i need to do 372 sq ft awning and polycarbonate already cost me RM9k++......if tempered glass, i think i need to spend more than 30k.... Mine front will be 6 x 22, than my daughter and spare room maybe 4 x 4 x 2, and front first floor exit to front balcony 4 x 4, and my big master bedroom will be 12 x 4. That will sum up to about 228 Sqft If RM 65 per sqft, that will be come ~ RM 15k I need to rob a bank. |

QUOTE(tiensong @ Feb 29 2012, 11:41 AM) I still headache on choosing colour....i dont like green, blue and red colour.....now left brown and clear (no colour) to choose.....if use transparent, my 300++ sq ft balcony will always under hot sun....so, maybe will choose brown rough surface which can block 85% sunlight...haiz....another decision need to make is...use pergola type (balau wood) or metal frame.....metal easy to maintain....anyone give me some opinion? Is the brown also transparent? If transparent too, it still have UV coming in and still hot. I will say wood easy to maintain. Metal can rust.Thanks |

QUOTE(jerryng75 @ Jan 26 2013, 10:09 AM) Hi Good to know now have more option. I am looking for awning, what is the per sqft? Looking to compare with tempted glassEveryone need to Survive. More Margin . Hit and Run Business I wanted to have a Clear Roof in my Car Porch, but Contractor told me Every 3 years need to Change No Way I Will pay Every 3 years for a Clear Roof So End up I waited another 2 years before I found this Lexan* Grade Fading ? You Mean Yellowing? From the Web site , They mention ' Lexan Thermoclear Plus offers a ten year limited written warranty against discoloration, loss of light transmission and loss of impact strength due to weathering with superior conditions compared to competitive products.'

QUOTE(jerryng75 @ Jan 26 2013, 11:24 AM) You will have a few Choice I will prefer tempered glass over laminated. Laminated are weak, and easy break compare to tempered. I have bad experience on Laminated, even the broken glass are not falling, but still some pieces do drop and is very sharp.Lower Cost - Twin Wall - Get 10 mm thick Lexan Solar Control IR , Best in this Class 6 mm Thick one doesn't look Good Higher Cost . Solid Lexan, 6mm , Un-breakable , even by an Axes Anything Lower than 6 mm is not advisable due to Waviness during Hot Sunny Day Paying for Safety here Glass ? Get At Least - Laminated Glass ( Tempered Glass ) Glass will have Spontaneous Breaking ( Unless you willing to pay for Heat Soaked Tempered Glass, which High Rise uses) Once they Break, The Lamination will hold it and not Drop Immediately. so You are Safe Don't Get Float Glass. Too Dangerous Critical Note Polycarbonate is HALF the Weight of a Glass 12 mm Glass Can be Replace by 6mm Lexan SOLID. Which make the Weigh is A Quarter of the Weigh of Glass. Conclusion is The Structure for Polycarbonate is much Lighter and LOWER Cost Anyhow, Workmanship + Structure = 70% of your Payment Material = Only 30% of your Payment |

QUOTE(jerryng75 @ Jan 27 2013, 11:05 AM) Tempered Glass = 1 pieces How often you see glass door break? is one piece tempered. Laminated tempered, i do hear and read about it real application i have not seen before.Laminated = 2 pieces Laminated Tempered Glass = 2 pieces Hybrid Laminated = 1 Pieces Float + 1 pieces Laminated Theoretically When Tempered Glass Breaks, it's not sharp ( Maybe Process not Complete) It should breaks nto Millions of pieces I still think 1 pieces Laminate Glass is risky All the above combination will have the risk of spontaneous Breaking. No Idea When. For Safety get Laminated Tempered Glass = 2 pieces |

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ Sep 29 2013, 09:50 AM) that one future only think. Who's know? We have rain to wash away the birds drop. Furthermore how often you get birds drop? by that time, all bird shit already full on top to add another layer. I pity those that do glass. Look elegant and nice. But with bird shit...ewww.... (more cleaning) You probably demolish and rebuild a new one. Few of my mom neighbor put awning I hardly see them wash and is still good looking. Concern about bird drop, you can climb up and check how many bird dropping on the roof. |
