Load Bearing Structures of Glass Single-Storey Buildings
Since the period of application curtain wall on skeleton buildings, small single–storey buildings are the great topic for architects. By various means architects have effort to create an impression of floating roof structure, or an illusion of levitating roof over the country. The effect of transparent space, overlapping interior and exterior, is possible to achieve by use of various structural schemes and materials of support structure. Nowadays single-storey transparent buildings are regarded as a phenomenon, which presents progress in architecture from the point of dematerialization of support structures and details of secondary transparent structures. Glass is in contemporary transparent curtain walls used not only as a material of the building skin, but also as the material of the support structure in various structural elements within hierarchy of the load bearing structure. Flat glass sheets forming the building skin could be within the suitable chosen shape of enclosed envelope also load bearing structure.
