For instance, last week i went to B-Suite Hotel for my son's graduation and saw this:-
Disregard the lady with the ballon, pay attention to the HANDRAIL instead. What is the purpose of a handrail build on staircase? It is no doubt for SAFETY. I don't think using a fragile material for handrail is a good idea. Esthetic yes but safety NO! there is no compromise to safety!
I went there for my kid graduation, so there were so many kids around. kids love to run around the places and push each other really hard and jump on each other like what people did in wresting anywhere they feel like. Imagine what would happened if they suddenly throw themselves against the glasses.. the glas would break and they will get hurt by the pieces and miggt even fall off.. it is going to be a nightmare..
The glass is thick all right it is half inch in thickness, but i am not at all confident. advise to all building owners and designers especially, if you want to design something for safety, please do it right!
