Things to know to have a beautiful and modern greenhouse

In modern constructions, glass is considered as an indispensable part. Today’s construction professionals not only use glass for high-rise buildings but also for residential buildings, glass material is also becoming more and more popular. However, not every family knows how and chooses to use glass to suit their home space. This article will help you find the answer to the above question.

How many types of glasses are there, how to distinguish the types of glasses?

The reason for classifying glass is because each different glass manufacturer will produce different types of glass with different specifications and uses, suitable for each homeowner’s use. Currently, on the market there are basic types of glass as follows:

– Classify glass according to the degree of light transmission: transparent glass, translucent glass, opaque glass, reflective glass, and mirror.

– Classification of glass by structure: normal glass, laminated safety glass (2 or 3 layers of glass glued together), tempered glass (tempered glass, also known as tempered glass to strengthen the glass).

– Classification according to the purpose of use: glass for light, glass for both sound and heat insulation (box glass has 2-3 layers of glass, between layers of glass is an inert gas for sound and heat insulation), glass decoration (stained glass, patterned glass), home glass…

Let’s take a closer look at some of the most popular types of glass today:

– Tempered glass: Tempered glass is ordinary glass that is “heat-tempered” up to ~700 degrees and quickly cooled by cool air. The purpose of this heat curing is to create tension for the glass surface to increase bearing capacity, strong impact resistance and better heat resistance. Tempered glass includes 2 types: semi-tempered glass and fully tempered glass. Semi-tempered glass is 2-3 times stronger than normal glass, especially when a strong impact occurs, it will crack from the center of impact to the glass frame, not break into sharp pieces like normal glass. Fully tempered glass has superior hardness, 4-5 times harder than normal glass; its special feature is that when there is a strong impact, it will break into crumbs like corn kernels, difficult to cause damage.

– Laminated safety glass: Laminated safety glass is a type of glass with a special structure with two single layers of glass washed with deionizer clean water, then pressed together by PVB film and distilled at high temperature, to create a bond between each other. Bonding and transparency of the glass. Tempered safety glass has the ability to withstand a great deal of impact, even if it is broken, the glass still stands firmly in the door, effectively preventing outside penetration.

– Glass box: Having a box-shaped structure with a space in the middle filled with Argon gas (inert gas) allows the glass box to minimize noise from the surrounding environment, and at the same time increase heat insulation. Therefore, it helps to save maximum costs in using electricity for air conditioning systems, lighting. And glass box technology was born to meet the requirements of energy saving for construction works, especially in high-rise buildings.

How to choose the right glass for your home’s use

– If you want to use glass as a partition : If your home is a large space and you want to take advantage of the light through the room, the glass wall is an optimal choice. Glass partition in the bathroom is one of the typical examples. Glass in this case is very advantageous because it is water-resistant, transparent, does not constrict the space, and the partition structure hardly takes up space on the ground.

– Glass for walls, covering structures: Currently, high-rise constructions mainly use glass to make surrounding walls instead of cement walls as before. For residential buildings, glass walls are often used for the upper floors to bring modern beauty, luxury and take advantage of natural light.

– Roof glass : Roof glass is used a lot in all kinds of works due to its advantages of getting light and preventing rain. Glass roofs can be used in large areas, large spaces such as courtyards, terraces, public rooms… to smaller areas such as lobby roofs, tom roofs, skylight roofs… indoors. in family.

– Flooring glass: Do not stop at the wall, roof… glass with its own load or static load; glass has the same bearing capacity with dynamic loads as structural floors. Many types of tempered glass allow making floors such as floors, landing floors, stairs…

– Glass for making household items, other furniture: Table tops, shelves… in the interior. Smooth, easy-to-clean glass surface is an advantage, so glass is often chosen as a cover for horizontal surfaces that are easy to get wet, easy to get dirty… such as water tables, dining tables, reception counters, bar surfaces, cabinets. …

– Decorative glass : Currently, in modern architecture, glass paintings in particular and decorative glass in general are also widely applied in the form of mosaic glass, lacquered glass, painted glass, 2D, 3D sculpture… This form of decorative glass gives very good aesthetic effect when combined with natural light (from outside) or artificial light (inside out).

However, besides the advantages such as heat and sound insulation, bringing modern beauty, it is necessary to pay attention to the weaknesses of the greenhouse as follows:

– Even if it’s tempered glass, there’s still a chance of it being broken and dangerous

– Glass is clear and bright, so it will look dirty quickly if not cleaned regularly.

– If using too much tempered glass in the room, it is easy to cause excessive light effect or greenhouse effect – excess heat.

– Personal privacy will be limited when using glass as a wall or partition or even a roof.
