Experimental research at the Department of Steel and Timber Structures at SUT in Bratislava focused on the verification of the behavior of modern glass structures. Four types of glass beams were tested - laminated beams made of annealed (ANG) and fully tempered glass (FTG) in interactions with or without steel elements (as reinforcement). The results of the experimental research were also compared with theoretical models using FEM calculations.
