Contributor Veer, F.A. (mentor) Knaack, U. (mentor) Bos, F.P. (mentor) Faculty Architecture Date 2008-01-18 Abstract For an existing facade structure of the faculty of architecture a new concept is designed. It involves a curtain wall with a loadbearing welded glass construction as a posterior construction. The total construction is built out of starshaped elements, these elements are demountable because of the designed joint. The joint is based on the torque bicycle principle. The stability of the glass facade is set with the help of steel cables. For the application of welded glass, expirimental research is done to evaluate the specimen on strength, geometrical accuracies and its failure behaviour.
