Impact Resistance of Annealed Glass Panels

Abstract

Annealed glass is by far the most commonly used glazing material in building construction. The resistant properties of glazing panels to wind loading has been studied for a long time based on quasistatic modeling. More recently, the vulnerability of infrastructure and its protection against acts of terrorism has been receiving a great deal of attention, as pioneered by the work of Wu and Hao from within Australia, whereas vulnerability studies by Stewart were specific to glass facades in terrorism scenarios. Emphasis has been on modeling the blast induced pressure and impulses, as they are applied to the panels while the resistant properties of the glazing materials have been based on assumptions used currently in design. Research undertaken by the writers over the past two to three years have revealed scopes of possible improvements to the current models that have been used in defining the resistant properties of glazing materials. Models based on the well known Weibull distribution, although widely assu...
