| In this third episode of the #AskGlaston flat tempering series, Taneli Ylinen deals with the commonly asked question of how to handle the issues with mixed production.
| This text takes a look at the roller process of lamination. It explores different heating concepts such as convection, long wave and short wave IR radiation, and micro-waves, as well as the importance of the correct IR radiation.
| This Glastory blog by Kalle Kaijanen is dealing with the processing of high-strength / structural laminates.
| Laminating glass is a process that requires precision and safety. In order to ensure that the glass is laminated safely and to a high standard, special cleanroom requirements must be met. This includes air pressure, clothing, static charges, and cleaning protocols.
| This paper presents a study on the development of a bonded edge seal for fluid-filled insulating glass units.
| The results of the classification of hail resistance classes for different materials for greenhouse enclosures are presented in this paper.
| In this research, the structural sealed façade structure with triple IGU was investigated and the effect of the thickness of ordinary and laminated glasses.
| When we look at glass lamination, there are 3 basic systems: Nip roller system, Vacuum bag system and Autoclave free system.
| This paper reviews the high-temperature behavior of a selected range of silicones used for sealing and bonding in construction.
| In the structural design of facade glazing, various types of loads such as dead weight, wind and climatic loads must be taken into account. In practice, however, there are many cases of damage that can be attributed to direct solar radiation.
| In the next session(s), Luc would like to take you through the 3 glass lamination processes in detail, going from glass and PVB requirements to design concepts.
| This work discusses the results from first feasibility investigations dealing with the choice of adhesive and identifying a suitable activation procedure for Fe-SMA strips adhesively bonded to glass elements.
| This paper presents work undergone for a set of four high-rise towers, featuring 11,136 unique cold-bentpanels, hundreds of which are pushed beyond 250mm.
| In this paper, we present the development of an intrinsic parameter σQM characterizing the sensitivity of a coating (or configuration) to the quench marks.
| The paper undertakes a review of basic interlayer stack data with regards to viscoelastic properties and adhesion, and the engineering hypotheses using recent preliminary fitting test results for various loading schemes.
| This paper sheds some light on the challenges to build with high performing glazing façade systems (originally called curtain wall systems) while efficiently utilising resources and reducing its manufacturing embodied carbon.
| This research revolves around the design, fabrication and testing of tubular glass columns, with particular focus on their redundancy and fire-safety mechanisms.
| This paper gives an overview of the requirements of a ship structure, and more specifically yacht structures, and describes the challenges associated with using glass as a fully integrated structural component.
| Ground rules emerging from built case studies on adhesive selection and experimental validation.
| The economy globalizes. The industries concentrate. The productions become uniform. Cultural specificities disappear. About architecture and glass in architecture, it is the same phenomenon.
| “Going ahead of the Curve” is what the advertisement states outside of newly remodeled, Class A office building in Ottawa, Canada.
