GLASS DESIGN IN ETABS 2015
ILYAS and one other reacted to sameersaleem for a topic
CONSIDER THE SLAB AS SIMPLY SUPPORTED ON BEAMS AND CALCULATE THE MOMENT THEN CALCULATE THE REQUIRED THICKNESS OF GLASS BY COMPARING THE MOMENT WITH THE TENSILE STRENGTH OF GLASS (TENSILE STRENGTH OF GLASS WILL BE PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER)2 points -
GLASS DESIGN IN ETABS 2015
ILYAS reacted to Hira Malik for a topic
Attached below is screen shot of a canopy model. the cantilever portion is 24ft glas with supporting beams and 20psf live load. I am not sure how to check the design for a glass slab. How to check shear? What would be the limiting value of shear stress? Like for RC slabs it is 60psf (1.1*SQRT(fc'). What else do i need to check? Like in RC slabs for the moment we provide reinforcement, but how to deal with glass?
