Glass is a material made up from liquid sand. Glass is a very commonly used material due to the wide possibilities to get manipulated into suitable for.ms for variety of applications. Construction glass is used in glazing, in the construction of transparent and semitransparent partitions, in the covering of walls, and in the facing and decoration of stairways and other parts of buildings.
Glass making has been in existence since 2500 BC. Flat glass was produced by means such as casting and cylinder technology before industrialization. This was followed by sheet glass and plate glass means of manufacturing till the 1960s. Due to increasing demand for high-quality flat glass, Pilkington Brothers developed the automated float glass manufacturing process. Till date, 90% of flat glass is produced through the float glass manufacturing process. Glass was first used for architectural purposes by the Romans after they discovered clear glass in Alexandria. The development, manufacturing, and use of glass increased rapidly after 1890. Window glass has been in use since 1st century AD.
