Abstract

This study describes the path to a fully transparent glass structure without metal joints that was recently built in Dresden. Four glass frames, joined by transparent acrylate adhesives at their edges, support the outer walls and the ceiling of the glass enclosure. Regular loading scenarios as well as different failure scenarios were analysed to evaluate redundancy of the structural system. Comprehensive testing was carried out, based on previous research on acrylate adhesives.
