Behavior of Glued Connections under Shear Loading
An intensive research in load-bearing glass structures leads to the requirement for performing glass-to-glass or glass-to-different material connections. Glued shear connection is suitable for these applications mainly due to its uniform stress distribution in larger area in comparison with bolted connections. The reliability of adhesive in the connection during the life time of a structure is affected by many factors, [1], [2], [3], [4]. The article deals with the experimental analysis focused on the determination of material characteristics of adhesives in planar connections, it describes the effect of various factors on the behavior of an adhesive joint under increasing shear loads, its ultimate load-bearing capacity and its failure modes. The main investigated factors are the type of adhesive, the type of connected materials (material of substrate), surface treatment and the thickness of the adhesive layer. Due to importance of adhesive layer thickness especially in rigid and semi-rigid glues, numerical models responding to the effect of thickness was carried out.
