For types of glass other than single annealed sheet and plate glass, allowable maximum areas may be determined by multiplying values in table 10-7 by the appropriate multiplying factor listed in table 10-8.
TABLE 10-8
MULTIPLYING FACTORS FOR VARIOUS TYPES OF GLASS
*For asymmetrical units base strength on thinner lite.
