Abstrakt: |
Glass is getting more and more popular in many fields of structural engineering. In case of covering of roof constructions it is possible to design very transparent and of the architectural side very attractive constructions. A combination with photovoltaic elements enables energy output. It is very important to consider some points: Glass is a brittle material, so it is important to do the static analysis very carefully. Sometimes tests are necessary for the remaining load carrying capacity in the case the glass breaks. In case of large roof constructions the deflection of the substructure must considered in the analysis of the glass. Looking to the codes there exist worldwide only very few regulations. Finally some examples are presented. |
