CAN/CGSB-82.6-M, "Doors, Mirrored Glass, Sliding or Folding, Wardrobe," covers mirrored glass doors for use on reach-in closets. It specifies that such doors are not to be used for walk-in closets.
Tables 9.6.1.3.-A to 9.6.1.3.-F are based on CAN/CGSB-12.20-M, "Structural Design of Glass for Buildings," and the wind load provisions in Article 4.1.7.3. The maximum glass area values given in these Tables are intended to be equal to or smaller than those that would be determined using the standard and wind load provisions directly to design for each individual case.
Maximum areas in Table 9.6.1.3.-G for other than fully tempered glazing are cut off at 1.50 m2, as this would be the practical limit after which safety glass would be required by Sentence 9.6.1.4.(2).
