These features can form a basis for calculations of lighting, heating and cooling of rooms and allow comparison between different glass types.

This European standard applies to both conventional glazing and solar controlled absorber or reflective glazing used as vertical or horizontal glazed openings. Suitable formulas are given for single, double and triple glazing.

This European standard is accordingly applicable to all transparent materials except those that show significant transmission in the 5 µm to 50 µm wavelength region of radiation at ambient temperature, such as certain plastic materials.

Materials with light scattering properties for incident radiation are treated as conventional transparent materials subject to certain conditions.

While this European standard provides formulas for precise calculations of the spectral properties of glass, it does not take into account the uncertainty of the measurements necessary to determine the spectral parameters used in the calculations.

It should be noted that for simple glass systems where few measurements are required, the uncertainty of the results will be satisfactory if correct measurement procedures are followed. When glass systems become complex and many measurements are required to determine spectral parameters, the uncertainty increases with the number of measurements and must be taken into account in the final results.
