Calculation of Glass Strength Against Wind Pressure

a. Building = CLUB HOUSE Building (J26)

b. Type of glass = STOPSOL GLASS = STOPSOL Glass
c. Glass thickness ( t ) = = 10,00 mm (Design)
d. Allowable load = = 1.000,00 kg (Table 1 Allowable Loads of Flat Glasses - Page 56)
d. Average load = = 2.500,00 kg (Table 1 Allowable Loads of Flat Glasses - Page 56)
1 Area of glass ( A ) = 2.000 x 1.800 = 3,60 m2 (Design)
Allowable wind pressure = Average load / Area of glass = 694,44 kg/m2
10,9m (as module J26)
2 Glass position ( h ) = = 12,12 m' (Design)
13,57m (top module)
3 Velocity of wind ( Q ) = = 223,88 kg/m2
3,1 Normal wind velocity ( V ) = = 59,85 m/s
3,2 Unnormal wind velocity (taifun) ( V ) = = 62,41 m/s
3,3 Length of building ( L ) = = 69,15 m' (Design)
3,4 Height of building ( H ) = terhadap muka tanah = 14,61 m' (Design)
4 Coefficient of wind force ( C ) =
(i) When the building is 31 m height or lower
Coefficient of wind force ( C ) = = 0,80
(ii) When the building height exceeds 31 m
Building ratio = L/H = 4,73
( a ) = H / 10 = 1,46
( b ) = L/8 = 8,64
Coefficient of wind force ( C Pos ) = = 0,80 (Table 2 Value of C - Page 57)
Coefficient of wind force ( C Neg ) = = (1,50)

5 Design wind pressure ( P ) = C Pos x Q = 179,11 kg/m2

6 Design load ( W ) = PxA = 644,78 kg
7 Glass thickness ( t ) = = 10,00 mm OK
8 The ralationship among wind pressure, glass area, glass thickness and a safety factor on the basis of wind pressure breaking test result
Single Glass
8,1 Safety factor ( F ) = = 3,30 (Design) (Table 4 Safety Factor and Failure Probability - Page 58)
8,2 Constant value spesific to single glass ( K ) = = 80,00 (Table 3 Value of K - Page 58)
8,3 Area of glass ( A ) = = 3,60 m2
8,4 Allowable wind pressure ( P ) = (K / (FxA)) x (t + ((t^2)/4)) = 179,11 kg/m2
8,5 Glass thickness ( t ) = = 10,00 mm
