Comparative Study on Structural Performance of Different Laminated Glass Composites and Brick Wall

Abstract:

Laminated glass composites are structural glass members made by assembling thin laminated panels which are connected by structural adhesives called interlayer. Laminated glass composite is a safety and security glass which enables significant improvement in the post-breakage behaviour. The interlayer of laminated glass composites ensures the integrity of the glass by holding it together. In the field of modern and innovative architectural engineering, the applications of laminated glass composites are increasing due to its lighting, aesthetics and architectural advantages. This paper introduces the buckling and vibration characteristics of different laminated glass elements using ANSYS 16.2.
