Original Abstract

This paper deals with actual behaviour of beams of structural glass. Simple beam was modeled in software based on finite element method. Due to the manufacturing process of structural glass components the cross-section is rectangular. Set of rectangular cross-section was modeled with variable aspect ratio ranging from 20 to 0,03. Numerical models were realized using space, planar and one dimensional finite elements and both linear and nonlinear solutions were performed. Results from numerical modeling were compared with analytical calculation results. In analytical computation deflections due to bending and shear were considered.
