• SPYDER Canopies are project specific. Site specific engineering and design must be undertaken.
• There are many design loads and safety precautions that have to be considered within the design.
• Usually a steel support structure is required and the steel must be fabricated in a manner to allow for the weight and spans of the glass.

SPYDER Canopies can be designed to be fixed to;

• Steel Structures
• Structural Timber Frames (Specific engineering and design must be undertaken)

SPYDER Canopies are designed and engineered to take;

• Viridian toughened safety glass 
• Viridian toughened SENTRYGLAS laminated safety glass

SENTRYGLAS must be used if the Canopy is 5m or greater from the finished floor level.

SENTRYGLAS is a toughened laminated glass that has a rigid interlayer. The SENTRYGLAS interlayer provides added safety, in the unlikely event of both the toughened glass panes breaking; the SENTRYGLAS interlayer will hold the toughened glass fragments together stopping them from falling to the floor or over people that may be under the glass.

• Site specific design and engineering is required for this type of canopy
• PS1 is available upon request

This proprietary canopy system needs to comply with New Zealand Building Code Clauses;

• B1 - Structure
• B2 - Durability
• F2 - Hazardous Building Materials
