Advanced Window Glass Design performs all required calculations to design window glass according to ASTM E1300-09, ASTM E1300-12 and ASTM E1300-16. The Glass Association of North America (GANA) endorses Advanced Window Glass Design as being the best tool available to aid in designing window glass to resist uniform wind and long-term uniform pressure.  Members of the GANA technical council served in program development and each now uses a copy of the program. 

The below table describes the features of the Advanced Window Glass Design program.
