I'm going to build a Bridge with a part of it in glass. Should I just use AGS or "normal" glass. The glass will be quite thick, 60 mm, how should I approach this ? We are also consindering doing some night renders with Multilight, so It should be a type which should be quite fast to render without to many"fireflys".

Please advise asap. I'm on a deadline

If there are thicker parts, normal glass would be better for the effect. It depends mostly on how you will light it. Will you be using physical sky with sunlight on?

Yes, maybe 4 renders with sunlight and 2 nightrenders with emitters !

You can have problems with shadows from the sun seen through the glass, but depending on the structure it could be ok for the render.
