Analysis of the Influence of the Interlayer on the Behaviour of Laminated Glass Beams Exposed to Bending : Master's Thesis

Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad analizira utjecaj izbora međusloja kod laminiranih staklenih nosača izloženih savijanju. U prvom dijelu rada opisani su različiti međuslojevi koji se koriste kod ovakvih nosača te navedene osnovne materijalne karakteristike potrebne za proračun. Proveden je analitički proračun laminiranih nosača izloženih savijanju prema prEN16612, te izvršena numerička analiza laminiranih nosača izloženih savijanju (fourpoint bending test) varirajući međuslojeve. Na kraju su dobiveni analitički i numerički rezultati uspoređeni s eksperimentalnim istraživanjima objavljenim u literaturi, te formulirani zaključci.This thesis analyses the influence of the interlayer choice in laminated glass beams exposed to bending. The first part of the paper describes the different interlayers used in such supports and lists the basic material characteristics required for the calculation. Analytical calculation of laminated beams exposed to bending according to prEN16612 was performed, and numerical analysis of laminated beams exposed to bending (fourpoint bending test) was performed, varying the interlayers. Finally, analytical and numerical results were obtained compared with experimental research published in the literature, and conclusions were formulated
