    The document provides information for designing a flat glass plate that is simply supported on all four edges with a uniform loading. It gives the strength of glass, elastic modulus, allowable bending stress, dimensions of the plate, and allowable deflection. It then provides equations to calculate the maximum bending stress and deflection at the center of the panel based on these parameters and coefficients for different aspect ratios. It applies these equations to the given plate dimensions and properties to calculate the required thickness of glass.

Design & Material Data: Strenght of glass in compression = Elastic Modulus of glass E for Glass = Allowable bending stress for laminated glass = Long Edge dimension, a = Short Edge dimension, b = Aspect ratio a/b = Uniform Loading, q= Allowable deflection = span/175 a b 1000 MPa 70000 MPa 28.0 MPa 1712 mm Actual 1500 mm Actual 1.141 2.87 KN/m2 ENL HOUSE May 18, 2012 Output

    At centre of panel, Maximum bending stress, =(.q.b^2)/t^2, where t is the thickness of glass Maximum deflection, y = (.q.b^4)/(E/t^3), where t is the thickness of glass where , are given in the following table for various aspect ratios. a/b 1.0 1.200 1.4 1.6 1.8 2.0 0.2874 0.3762 0.453 0.5172 0.5688 0.6102 0.0444 0.0616 0.077 0.0906 0.1017 0.111
