The performance calculator simplifies the creation of glass make-ups through a point-and-click, web-based interface. Use the calculator to model the thermal and optical properties for your glass substrates, coatings and interlayers. Then easily create client-ready reports comparing glass options.
The Guardian acoustic assistant is a tool to estimate acoustic performance of different types of glazing. User's have the option to estimate the acoutic performance of glazing, find glazing solutions for an acoustic performance, or directly access/view the acoustic performance table.
The building energy calculator uses the makeups created in the performance calculator to compare energy cost, consumption and financial payback information. This schematic design tool makes calculations based on hourly simulations of glazing options, building parameters and project location. The Building Energy Calculator can be used to compare annual energy costs for a variety of climate zones.
The Guardian Glass Static Calculator tool allows glass professionals to check glass stress and deflection for standard glazing configurations under wind, climatic, and line loads, in accordance with EN 16612. By defining glass dimensions, build-up, support conditions, and loads, users can generate a preliminary structural verification and download a calculation report to support design and specification decisions.
