Stability of Dry-Stacked Glass Masonry Arch Bridges

The plan of the glass group of the TU Delft to realize a 14m span dry-stacked glass arched masonry bridge led to investigation of stability of glass arches in more general. Analytical and numerical analysis are done to compare results. Analytical analyses are based on methods developed for tradition...

description The plan of the glass group of the TU Delft to realize a 14m span dry-stacked glass arched masonry bridge led to investigation of stability of glass arches in more general.
