Structural glass combined with a timber frame is a composite system that has a
predisposition for good behavior during an earthquake, it is energy-efficient and cost …

Over the past decade the use of large size glazing has increased with timber structures.
Most of the research works done so far have focused on the building physics aspects of the …

This proceedings volume of the Challenging Glass 4 & COST Action TU0905 Final
Conference, held 6-7 February 2014 at the EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland, represents the …

Façade elements are a building component that satisfies multiple performance parameters.
Among other things,“advanced façades” take advantage of hybrid solutions, such as …

This paper deals with the seismic behaviour of timber-glass systems. A series of
experiments was performed on the shaking table of the IZIIS institute in Skopje, Macedonia …

Laminated glass is widely used for façades in commercial and residential buildings. Special
attention must be paid for such buildings when located on the earthquake prone areas. As …

The basic concept of seismic building design is to ensure the ductility and sufficient energy
dissipation of the entire system. The combination of wood and bearing glass represents a …

This paper presents the results of experimental investigations on glass-timber wall elements.
Timber frame, to which a glass pane is directly attached, forms the composite wall element …
