Formulas used
  • Area (ft²) = width × height ÷ 144
  • Weight per lite (lb) = area × [ (outer + inner glass, in) ÷ 12 × 156 + interlayer (in) ÷ 12 × 66.8 ]
  • 156 lb/ft³ is soda-lime float glass at 2,500 kg/m³ (EN 572-1); 66.8 lb/ft³ is PVB at about 1.07 g/cm³
  • kg = lb × 0.4536

Every result is an estimate from the numbers you enter. Nothing is pre-filled with our figures, nothing leaves your browser, and your last inputs are saved on this device only. Not engineering, legal, tax or lending advice.
