Abstract
In this contribution the performance of an adhesively bonded glass to metal connection with a carefully selected epoxy adhesive is investigated experimentally. Deliberately pushing the limits of conventional safety concepts for the sake of the experiment, laminated glass canopies were suspended on stainless steel local point-fixings, adhesively bonded to the upper glass sheet only. Subsequently, the suspended system was subjected to a ball-drop test, a uniform load and a hammer impact. Different glass types and canopy arrangements have been tested in this way. Depending on the design parameters, several compositions demonstrated surprisingly good residual structural safety: even after 24 hours of full loading in broken conditions, the heat-strengthened canopy configurations did not collopse.
