If you are in the US, then glass weighs 155lbs/ft³. If you are not in the US or you want to use metric, you will have to do a conversion.
155lbs/ft³equals approximately 1.52lbs/ft² at 1/8" thickness
Polyvinyl Butyral or PVB weighs .085lbs/ft² at .015" thickness.
Since laminated glass is two sheets of glass "sandwiching" a sheet pf PVB, we can calculate the weight of a square foot of laminated glass consisting of two lites of 1/8" glass plus the weight of the PVB interlayer - in this case, .015".
glass + interlayer + glass = 1.52lbs + .085lbs + 1.52lbs = 3.125lbs/ft²
A little bit of basic arithmetic and you can get the weight of any size or thickness desired.

What is density of laminated glass?
The density of laminated glass typically ranges from 2.47 to 2.55 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³), depending on the specific configuration and materials used in its construction.

How much 1 sq meter of 5 mm thick glass weight?
The weight of 1 square meter of 5mm thick glass can vary depending on the type of glass. On average, 5mm float glass weighs approximately 10.5 kg per square meter. However, the weight may differ for other types of glass such as tempered or laminated glass.
Can toughened and laminated glass have waves?
The quick and short answer to this question is "yes". It's all based on how well the glass is manufactured. There is a large amount of heat used during the manufacturing process of laminated or toughened glass which temporarily weakens it. The glass is heated to a melting point for which it can be reshaped and then cooled quickly to hold the new shape. It is during this process that the laminated glass is at its' most vulnerable point and needs to be handled with precision until it has cooled. Improper alignment of the rollers which are used during the reshaping and cooling process are generally the cause of these small waves or lines in the glass. These waves and lines are not indicative of poor quality and are not considered defects in the glass. However, if the waves are so apparent that images appear overly distorted then a new replacement glass should be requested.This post was made by www.autoglasslocator.com
Is there space between the layer in a laminated glass so that total internal reflection can Occur?
No, in laminated glass, the two or more layers of glass are bonded together with a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or resin. There is no space between the layers for total internal reflection to occur. Total internal reflection happens when light is completely reflected at the boundary between two different mediums, such as air and glass.
Can laminated glass be tempered?
Tempered glass can be laminated, but laminated glass cannot be tempered.

How does tempering glass increase weight?
Tempering glass involves heating it to a high temperature and then rapidly cooling it, which increases its strength and durability. This process does not inherently increase the glass's weight; rather, the weight remains consistent with the original glass. However, after tempering, the glass may be thicker or made into a different shape, which can lead to a perception of increased weight. Additionally, if the glass is laminated or treated with additional materials for safety or insulation, the overall weight may increase due to these added components.
