In case you're interested, here's the "formula" they use for the glass
floor of the CN tower:

Layers, from the top down: 
* 3/16" scuff plate (replaced annually) 
* Two 1/2" layers of clear tempered glass, laminated together 
* A one inch layer of air (for insulation) 
* Two 1/4" layers of clear tempered glass, laminated together 
Size of each panel: 42" by 50" 
Load tests are performed annually on each panel to ensure safety.
Designed to support 38,556 kg.
