Structural Glass Application in The Modern Era of Construction: A Review

Abstract

Addressing the growing utilization of glass as a structural material, this paper undertakes a systematic literature review to explore key aspects such as long-term behavior, structural connections, and adherence to design regulations in Glass Structures. Despite the increasing construction of ambitious buildings incorporating glass, there remains a noticeable gap in comprehensive research. The review systematically analyses major studies, highlighting developments in the field and compiling an overview of challenges faced by previous researchers. By synthesizing this information, the paper not only provides insights into the current state of Structural Glass but also identifies gaps and opportunities for future research. The ultimate objective is to contribute to the advancement of knowledge, fostering the safe and effective utilization of glass in diverse structural applications.
