A guide to human impact safety requirements NZS 4223: Part 3: 1999 [information from the Standard used with the permission of Standards NZ].

This printed out information from the www.wanz.co.nz website takes the form of a large flow chart and and sheet of tables of technical information about the different types of architectural safety glass (such as toughened glass, laminated glass, wired safety glass etc) and the thickness it needs to be and where it should be used to minimise cutting and piercing injuries. The flow chart guides decision making about where in the building to use safety glass (and what sort to use in that location). The website states: "This section details what kind of glass must be installed in certain locations. Glass can be hazardous if not used properly. There are lots of ways to make glass safe, and these pages step you through the selection process in accordance [... with the New Zealand Standard]." They have permission from Standards NZ to use this information from NZS 4223: Part 3 : 1999. This version is 60 - 63 cm and was provided by the Glass Association.
