1.3.3 Imposed/live load (L)

In accordance with the load report [6] based on Wintech specification [9]:
i. Residential areas:
Line load, qIh,k

- applied at a height of 1.1m above FFL
Point load, QIh,k

1.3.4 Maintenance load

Manual maintainance on walls according to CWCT clause 2.3.3:
Point load, QIh,k
0.5
kN
- applied on square of 100mm sides
BMU cradle impact under normal conditions must be ensured by the BMU contractor by designing the cradle
buffer system such that the equivalent static load applied to the glass in not more than 0.5 kN. Impact under
accidental situations giving equivalent static load more than 0.5 kN is not covered by this structural report.
1.3.5 Climatic load (C)
Climatic loads as a result of temperature, atmospheric pressure and altitude difference is checked in
accordance with prEN 13474-1.

Design Approach
IStructEs Structural use of glass in buildings 2nd edition and the draft European standard for determination of
the load resistance of glass panes prEN 16612 are used as guidance for the following glass structural
calculations.
Design criterion: d
fg,d
1.4.1 Glass design stress (d)

FEM analysis of glass panes gives principal stresses to be factored by the partial factors below.
i. Partial factors
Variable action, Q
1.2
- for glass used as infills for faade / curtain wall
Variable action, Q
1.3
- for secondary structures including infills serving as barrier
Variable action, Q
1.5
- for primary structures
Climatic action, 0Q
1.0
- accompanying variable load to leading wind or imposed load
1.4.2 Glass design strength (fg,d)

i. Annealed glass
Design bending strength, fg,d = kmodkspfg;k/M;A
Characteristic bending strength, fg;k
- see table below
Load duration factor, kmod
- see table below
Glass surface profile factor, ksp
1.0
- float glass
Material partial factor, M;A
1.6
- annealed glass
ii. Prestressed surface glass

Design bending strength, fg,d = kmodkspfg;k/M;A + kv(fb;k fg;k)/M;v
Characteristic bending strength, fb;k
- see table below
Strengthening factor, kv
0.6
- used either for horizontal or vertical toughening
Material partial factor, M;v
