The document discusses bolted glass connections and their stress distributions. It examines numerical and experimental investigations into the high local stresses that occur at drill hole edges in bolted glass structures. Three methods are identified for transmitting forces between glass and a point support: bonded connections, bolted connections, and connections relying on friction. The challenges of bolted connections in glass structures are also discussed in conference proceedings.

Glass - linear elastic and isotropic material; it follows Hooke’s law.
