Experimental Investigation on Post-tensioned Spannglass Beams during Temperature Loads

Recent research work focused on material efficient and safe structural use of glass beams. Reinforcing and post-tensioning of those structures in the style of reinforced concrete are promising options. They allow for a safe post-breakage behaviour of load bearing glass constructions.

Other ductile materials such as steel and high-grade cables strengthen the glass, which results in robust structures. However, hybrid structures are prone to temperature loads.
