Abstract:As the architectural trend for ever greater spans for glass framing elements keeps its momentum, we are dealing with larger reaction loads onto the elements connecting these to the concrete slab, respectively onto the anchoring system. Therefore, this numerical study has the scope of researching the use of standard cast-in anchor channels, commonly used to support curtain wall façade systems, that are positioned and cast-in relatively close to the edge of the reinforced concrete slab; as well as researching th… Show more
