    Author : Camilla Bength; [2005]
    Keywords : Toughened laminated float glass; tensile strength; Young’s Modulus; bolt fixings; FEM; ABAQUS; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Research needs: Glass has been used for a long time, mostly in the window and packaging industry, but lately architects and design engineers have become more and more interested in glass as a load-bearing (building) material. It has become a challenge to use less other materials in the glass-structures or at least not to let it show too much. READ MORE
