GLASS AS A LOAD BEARING MATERIAL IN YACHT STRUCTURES

In the building construction sector, glass has already been used as a load bearing material. In the shipbuilding sector this has not been done yet as the dynamic loads coming from the ship’s motions make it more complicated to calculate the response of the glass application. Also the material properties of glass are a significant obstacle. Metal has a crystalline structure, this means that the atoms can move relative to each other without breaking the bonds. Therefore metal can deform plastically. Glass has an amorphous structure, so it cannot deform plastically. This makes a construction with glass much less forgiving.
