1. GLASS STRENGTH FORMULA To calculate the glass strength, a special {heoty of plate material deformation proposed by Mr. Timoshenko is used. For wind stress calculation, where the glass is supported at all four edges, the wind pressure calculation formula in page 44 is used. 2. EDGE SUPPORT CONDITION Any point along the comers or glass edges must be strong and well-supported. 3. MAXIMUM BENDING STRESS AND MAXIMUM DEFLECTION The place where maximum bending stress and maximum deflection occur will vary according to the supporting method or loading condition. The calculation formula in the next Pages shows that for ac, &c, the maximum bending stress and maximum deflection occur in the central zone area of the glass. For go, 80, the maximum bending and maximum Geflection will occur at the mid-point of the glass length of the glass edges respectively. Atter obtaining oc and ce from the calculation formula, the results shall be compared with the corresponding figures in the short term - DEFLECTION AND VIBRATION Wenen 2 load is apptied, and should a big Geflection or vibration occur, a distorted appearance may result. These factors should Stus be considered. When using strong glass, Sy as tempered glass. When loading is very Close to the allowable stress, there is a lendency for a very big deflection. Therefore, itis necessary to check the detlection of the glass, 6. LAMINATED GLASS AND DOUBLE GLAZING Gass in these cases, the deflection of each glass in the combination will be the same, so the loading wit be proportionately shared by each glass thickness, 7 3 pes of laminated glass Glass thickness tt allowabie bending stress shown in table 1 Pelecin Babe (cac, cae). ji Pf te 4.
