structural glass design code?
is there an american structural glass design code or manual. i've tried to to google this without much luck.
i am trying to provide calcs for a glass canopy, and need some design parameters and allowable physical properties. the canopy is supporting its own weight, snow load, and wind; and must span between supports. thanks in advance.
have you tried this in the glass forum?
also,
try this thread:
astm e 1300 according to the 2006 ibc.

gana glazing manual should be given what you want.
i believe ibc2003 has some basic glass thickness and plate lengths vs load tables. see chapter 24
the ibc charts are the best way to go.
catch the link... |
