Behaviour of laminated glass beams reinforced with pre‐stressed cables

Abstract: Structural glass corresponds to an innovative material with extraordinary aesthetical and architectonic potential that has undergone significant technological advances in recent years, yielding it stronger and safer. For this reason, the use of structural glass has increased considerably in the last decade and is now an unavoidable presence in most of recent reference buildings. The structural capacity of glass elements is brought in from reinforcing techniques of different types. One of the possibilities corr… Show more

“…Exterior pre-stressing is an innovative technique that allows to efficiently control deformations and stresses in large LG panes or beams (see Jordão et al (2014), for example), due to the high eccentricity of the cables. In accordance with this design concept, the cables are typically anchored to the structural glass assembly and arranged in a polygonal layout.…”

“…Often, especially in these last years, the improvement of both the pre-cracked and post-failure structural performances of structural glass assemblies has been proposed in the form of hybrid and composite technological solutions, namely derived by the interaction between traditional structural glass elements and steel reinforcements and tendons (Martens et al 2015;Bedon and Louter 2014), GFRP layers (Martens et al 2015;Neto et al 2015) or external steel cables (Cupac and Louter 2015;Jordão et al 2014;Louter et al 2014;Kamerling 2012).…”

“…Different post-tensioning strategies are explored, such as tendons integrated within the beam web such as (Bos et al 2004;Louter et al 2014), or tendons placed externally such as (Díaz et al 2011). Also, distinction can be made between tendons placed linearly along the beam web, or tendons that are placed such that they provided an uplift to the beam (Weller and Engelmann 2014;Jordão et al 2014). Finally, post-tensioning strategies with either unbonded tendons that are mechanically anchored at the beam ends, or with tendons that are adhesively bonded along the length of the beam are investigated .…”

“…In particular, active pre-stressed beams showed excellent performance: these include beams with a single [8,9] or double [10] glass web reinforced with external tendons, beams with metallic reinforcement adhesively [11][12][13] or mechanically [14] bonded at the bottom side, and two-sided reinforced glass beams [15,16]. Concerning two-dimensional systems, hybrid solutions are less diffuse than hybrid beams even though glass as a shear frame restraint has been used since the nineteenth century (i.e.…”
