The glazing beads shall be of hardwood sections, 25mm wide by 15mm high, chamfered by 20^o and fixed using No 8 wood screws 50mm long or 38mm steel pins at a maximum of 150 mm centres.

The apertures may be cut directly into a solid core or lined with softwood or hardwood.

This Certificate of Approval relates to apertures of the sizes and using the glasses shown in the table below when used in conjunction with FireGlaze G30 glazing method:

Glass type	Maximum Pane dimension	Maximum Pane	Maximum Pane
	(mm) at any aspect ratio	dimension (mm) at	Area

For this application, the following conditions shall also apply:

The doorset, including door frame and associated building hardware, should have achieved at least 30 minutes fire resistance when tested, or subsequently assessed by one of the laboratories approved by CERTIFIRE as acceptable for this purpose, to BS 476: Part 22: 1987.
