Application of Glass Structures in Architectural Shaping of All-Glass Pavilions, Extensions, and Links

This article covers the issues of applying structural glass in shaping all-glass architectural objects. Glass, as a transparent material, is source inspiration for new solutions. With development technology and increasing knowledge glass’s mechanical strength properties, possibility using material construction purposes has also been acknowledged. Structural elements building envelope can create uniform structure observation contributed to analysis presented article. The research was mainly aimed at investigating structural-related conditions structures buildings. In this paper, we specify criteria typology terms applied design investigated study included functional-spatial aspects, form, structure. All-glass objects were divided into pavilions, extensions, links functional spatial aspects. Architectural forms specified characterised cubic, cuboid, cylindrical, free-forms. Regarding solutions, frames, grillages, beam-wall, plate-wall systems indicated main load-bearing implemented buildings under study. results have obtained describe One work indication between correlation confirms close relationship architecture art engineering.
