Sandblasted glass sloped 15 degrees (0.26 rad) or less from vertical in windows, curtain and window walls, doors, and other exterior applications shall be designed to resist the wind loads in Section 1609 for components and cladding according to Equation 24-12. 0.6Fgw < 0.5Fge (Equation 24-12) where: Fgw = Wind load on the glass due to basic design wind speed, V, computed in accordance with Section 1609. Fge = Nonfactored load in accordance with ASTM E 1300. The value for sandblasted glass is for moderate levels of sandblasting.
