Standards, field guides and training
Move from a definition into the established GlassRenu guidance that provides context for inspection, classification and qualified practice.
A reference, not a diagnosis
A definition or photograph alone cannot establish glass construction, coating location, structural performance or repairability. Use documented inspection and qualified assessment where needed.
