PPG Architectural Glass Resources & Technical Information
No matter what type of architectural glass products your next project demands, PPG IdeaScapes has the resources to help you evaluate your options, create your design specifications and realize your vision. Plus, you can always contact PPG and talk with an architectural glass expert who can support you as you work through any large or small construction project.
PPG Architectural Glass Tools
The following are innovative tools that can help you assess and compare the architectural glass and glazings products that you may be considering for your next project:
> PPG Glass Configurator - The PPG Glass Configurator is a comparison tool that allows you to view every PPG glass product both by aesthetic and by performance so you are better able to select the best glass for your next project.
> PPG Glass Performance Calculator - PPG's architectural glass product performance calculator allows you to analyze the performance of PPG's glazings on a variety of PPG glass types and thicknesses.
> PPG Energy Modeling of Architectural Glazings - This tool will help you compare the real energy costs associated with specific architectural glazings according to the U.S. Department of Energy's energy modeling software.
> PPG Thermal Stress Analysis Tool - PPG's Thermal Stress Analysis for Insulated Glass Units provides glass recommendations based on the design input of your project.
