Failure Behaviour Of Annealed Glass For Building Windows

The failure strength of annealed float glass is difficult to predict accurately due to several factors that influence the glass’ mechanical behavior, including stress rate, environmental conditions, fabrication process, glass thickness and the presence of surface flaws. Some of these parameters strongly depend on the construction practices of each country. This study aimed to assess the failure strength of annealed glass commonly used in the construction industry in Mexico, based on experimental tests.
