Improved computational methods for determining wind pressures and glass thickness in façades

Kenneth Zammit & Mauro Overend, University of Cambridge, UK & David Hargreaves, University of Nottingham, UK

Wind induced pressure is a major design consideration for determining the glass thickness and glass selection in façades. However, the effects of wind loading history on glass are largely neglected or grossly simplified. The use of computational techniques, such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)...

Transparency versus Security

Bernhard Weller & Thorsten Weimar, Technische Universität Dresden, Institute of Building Construction,Germany

Laminated glass panes with polycarbonate sheets as interlayer material are usually referred to as glass-polycarbonate sandwiches. These elements are typically used as security glazing in architecture. The design of the sandwiches depends considerably on the necessary classification of resistance aga...

Calculating Bonded Joints with Acrylates

Bernhard Weller & Iris Vogt, Technische Universität Dresden, Institute of Building Construction, Germany

At the moment adhesively bonded joints in glass construction are primarily achieves by the use of silicones although alternative adhesives – such as light- and UV-curing acrylates - offer many advantages. These acrylates not only provide increased strengths but also entirely transparent, thinner joi...
