| Abstract: |
Working Group 1 “Glass Structures” was founded in 2007. The relevance of the topic is proved by publication of SED, European research and standardization activities. In future WG1 is planning to publish a guideline for the application of structural used glass elements, bringing together different design recommendations worldwide. A short overview about applications and by this possible structure of such a guideline is given in this paper and more extensive in the presentation. As an example DIN 18008 as a code covering most aspects for structural design of glass structures is named and a short outlook to Eurocode 10 for glass structures is given. |
