Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Method for the Non-Destructive Assessment of Strength Degradation and Re-Use Potential of Weathered Float Glass From Facades: A Proof of Concept StudyFred Veer, Mauro Overend, Irene Sofokleous, Chris NoteboomLack of knowledge about the properties of weathered (used) glass is currently a major barrier to glass reuse. This results in probably unnecessary recycling or down-cycling of architectural glass at the end of life. Avoiding this creates a significant opportunity to reduce resource depletion and decarbonize the built environment. This can be done by developing an optical non-destructive test method … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Oct 2023 · 9,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDesign of Multi-Layered Laminated Glass Beams in Lateral-Torsional BucklingGabriel Neves Alves FerreiraThis article proposes a methodology for the structural design of multi-layered glass beams considering lateral-torsional buckling. The basis is the use of two separate effective thicknesses to determine flexural and torsional rigidities, based respectively on the Enhanced Effective Thickness (EET) and sandwich theory. Analytical formulae are then used to calculate the elastic critical bending moment and a design curve is … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 Oct 2022 · 9,804 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleSmall Hard Body Impact on Annealed, Heat Strengthened and Fully Tempered Laminated GlassFred Veer, Ton Romein, Pim BuskermolenNeglecting the accidental soccer or golf ball hitting the window of the neighbors in a movie, actual impact on glass is rare. In architecture, the only significant case in the literature is where a fully tempered laminated panel of the New York Apple cube was hit by a small stone launched by a snow blower. Nowadays a lot of glass … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 13 Jul 2022 · 10,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTests of Glass Insulating Panels with Embedded Laminated Point ConnectionsMichaela Zdražilová, Zdeněk Sokol, Martina EliášováEmbedded laminated point connections represent a progressive way of glass structures connecting. However, detail information about their performance is not available yet and the design procedure is mostly based on experimental work and previous experience of designers. Within an ongoing research at the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague, a set of real-scale insulating glass … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2022 · 10,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSmall-Scale Test of Transparent Adhesives in Glass Structures under Shear Stress and Their Ageing ResistanceMarkéta Zikmundová, Martina EliášováGlass load-bearing structures, which have been popular in recent years, require careful attention to detail, because with improper design there is a concentration of stress leading to failure and subsequent collapse of the structure. Mechanical connections are mainly used but there are disadvantages such as stress peaks, weakening of the cross-section, or aesthetic reasons. Adhesive connections eliminate these disadvantages. The … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2022 · 6,561 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExploratory Study on the Fracture Resistance of Cast GlassTelesilla Bristogianni, Faidra Oikonomopoulou, Fred Veer, Rob NijsseThe emerging interest in the architectural applications of cast glass components reveals a knowledge gap on the mechanical properties of cast glass. Apart from its chemical composition, cast glass is characterized by its manufacturing history and thermal profile, often inheriting a set of defects that define its properties. The role that inhomogeneities in the bulk of voluminous glass components have … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Jun 2021 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGlass Strength for Impact and Blast LoadingMatthias Förch, Frank WellershoffGlass strength is highly influenced by strain rate. This material behaviour is well known in structural glass design and implemented in various standards. The strength of architectural glass is determined by component tests with a defined strain rate of 2 N/(mm2s), providing favourable terms for testing. As typical effects of actions on facades result in lower or higher strain rates, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 7 May 2021 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleDemonstration of the Structural Resiliency of Damaged Sentryglas Laminated Heat Strengthened Glass Fins in Full Scale TestingFred Veer, Diana de Krom, Rob NijsseA unique structural design was made for the glass façade of the Co-Creation Center building in Delft. The roof is completely carried by the glass fins. The fins are laterally stabilized by being included in the triple glazed façade. To certify the safety of the design full scale tests on the fins were done at Delft University of Technology. Due … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2021 · 6,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBuilding Design Rule for Glass Structures by Persian CurveAbdolrasoul Ranjbaran, Mohammad Ranjbaran, Fatema RanjbaranGlass is being increasingly used as a structural material. Its favorable aesthetic qualities have made it popular with modern designers. Recently glass is used for major structural elements such as beams and columns in modern and innovative architectural applications. High slenderness ratios and brittle behavior in tension contribute to the complexity of stability and ultimate strength analysis of glass structures. … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2021 · 8,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUncertainty Assessment for the Buckling Analysis of Glass Columns with Random ParametersMohammad Momeni, Chiara BedonLoad-bearing elements composed of glass, as known, are often susceptible to buckling collapse mechanisms. This intrinsic characteristic (and thus potential limitation for design) typically derives from the use of relatively small thicknesses to cover large spans and surfaces, thus resulting in a multitude of columns, beams, or plates that are characterized by high slenderness. In the literature, accordingly, several and … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Dec 2020 · 6,295 accessesView PDFCite
