Hello all ! As the title might suggest.
How would you go at calculating the Bird Safety Factor for panels that have a gradient frit pattern on it ?
Median value for the all panel ? Division by surfaces ? Average for the all facade ?
Thank you

Average based on square footage by pattern/type would seem a reasonable approach. Show the math to the reviewer. Guardian glass is holding a webinar at noon central today that may propvide addiotional info. Yopu could ask questions there. https://www.cestrong.com/courses/bird-friendly-glazing-solutions-understanding-the-fundamentals-of-safe-design/

Thomas, I did not receive a copy of their presentation. It was put on by Guardian Glass. Perhaps there is more informatioon on their website, or you could reach out to an architectural representative. Guardian's presenter was Danielle Tyson. I do not have her email address.
