Abstract

Glass is commonly used in buildings, in most facades a security glazing has to be used according to safety standards. In Europe the standard EN 12600 establishes an impact test procedure for classification of glass from the point of view of the human security. However, this test does not replicate the actual dimensions and boundary conditions used in many building configurations and so the real stress distribution is not determined with this test. In order to obtain a test facility for human impact against glass plates, the behaviour of a dummy plate made of aluminium has been studied with different boundary conditions using an aluminium plate frame and a support structure. A mixed approach is applied with modal test results and updated finite element models.
