Abstract: |
The systematic development of innovative hybrid structures and the associated methodical procedure for a variety of load-bearing elements is described in detail within this paper. Results of the structural performance and the post-breakage behaviour of polycarbonate-glass composite elements are presented, as well. Innovative hybrid composite beams combining glass and steel are introduced with resulting specimen studies to clarify and substantiate the methods presented and utilized. |
