Structural Glass AI
AI for designing and analyzing structural glass systems.
Definition
Structural Glass AI assists in designing point-supported glass, glass fins, and other structural glass applications. These systems understand glass behavior under various loads, connection design requirements, and safety considerations. AI can size glass panels, design connections, and ensure structural glass designs meet safety standards.
In Depth
Structural glass design — glass fins, glass beams, point-supported glazing, and glass floors — requires specialized analysis for the non-ductile behavior of glass and the post-breakage performance requirements. AI assists with the finite element analysis of glass panels under wind, thermal, and dead loads, considering the different behavior of annealed, heat-strengthened, and fully tempered glass types.
