Cutting and Drilling
• All notches and holes must be made and finished with the proper
edge work before tempering.
• In general, the limitations on hole positions relative to the edges of
the glass, the corners of the glass
• and to each other depends on:
– nominal glass thickness (d)
– Dimensions of the glass
– Hole diameter (D)
– Shape of the glass
– Number of holes

Minimum Glass Width
• Minimum width (W) of the glass with round holes is 8 × glass
thickness (d).
W ≥ 8 × d
w

Diameter of the Holes
• The minimum diameter of the hole (Dmin) is not recommended to be
less than the nominal thickness (d) of the glass.
• The maximum diameter (Dmax) should not be more than a third of
the narrowest point of the glass.
Dmin ≥ d Dmax ≤ 1/3 × Wmin

Position of the Holes
• The distance (a) from the edge of the hole to the edge of the glass
should be not less than 2 × glass
• thickness (d).
• The distance (b) between the edges of two holes should be not less
than 2 × glass thickness (d).
a ≥ 2 × d
b ≥ 2 × d

Holes in Corners
• When having a corner, 90° or more with the rounding, the distance
(a) from the datum point of the corner to the edge of the hole must
be at least 4 × glass thickness (d).
• The distance (c) from the edge of the corner to the edge of the hole
should not be less than 6 × glass thickness (d).
a ≥ 4 × d
c ≥ 6 × d

• If the hole is placed in a corner nearer the glass edge than
recommended, the risk of glass breakage increases substantially.
• The risk can be minimized by making a cut in a narrower supporting
belt of the corner. See picture below.

Rectangular Holes & Rounding
• The maximum size (X × Y) of the rectangular cutting depends on the
dimensions of the glass.
• Cutting’s length (X) should not be more than third of the glass length
(L) and cutting’s width (Y) should not be more than third of the glass
width (W).
X ≤ 1/3 × L
Y ≤ 1/3 × W

• The distance (a) from the edge of the glass to the edge of the cutting
should be at least half of the cuttings length (X).
• The distance (b) from the edge of the glass to the edge of the cutting
should be at least half of the cuttings width (Y).
a ≥ ½ × X
b ≥ ½ ×Y
• Edges and notches of the cuttings must be rounded.
• The rounding radius (r) should not be less than the glass thickness
(d).
r ≥ d
