DEAD LOAD:
Glass weight at each location for Spandrel = (14/1000 x 25 x 0.9 x 1.575)/2 = 0.25 kN
Glass weight at each location for Vision = (14/1000 x 25 x 2.7 x 1.575)/2 = 0.75 kN
Load from top panel on head transom = 3 x 3.6/2 = 5.4 kN/m (3.6m is panel height)
Load from top panel on head transom = 3 x 3.6/2 = 5.4 kN/m (3.6m is panel height)
LOAD COMBINATIONS
= 1575 / 360
= 4.375 mm
= 3600 / 200
= 18 mm
The actual deflections will be much lesser than the above shown values because of the following reasons:
As can be seen in the deflection diagram above, most of the deflection is in the Lateral Direction
(X-Axis). Since the glass is bonded to the Mullions is very rigid in this plane, it will act as a rigid
diaphragm and prevent any lateral deflection within the panel.
The above model is considering only half Mullions. But after installation of the Panel, the male
and female mullions will act as one unit and reduce the deflections. This combined deflection is
already shown in the Zone-2 report (ATH-TWS-ALM-ST-CS-0021) and are within the specified
limits.
Hence we can conclude that the actual deflections will be much less than the deflections in the
model.
Note: The bending about minor axis (Y axis) can be safely ignored since the glass is rigid in this plane and
will prevent the bending of the mullion about this axis
