Structural Glass Assemblies also known as Suspended Assemblies, suspended glazing or Spider Glazing Systems greatly impact our view by the impressive visual appeal. However, there are varied design constraints which ask for considerable engineering effort. Spider Glazing or Spider glass fitting, also called as Spider glass fitting or Spider glazing facets is the latest solution for exterior bolted glass assemblies, which secures the glazing to a support structure by means of point-fixings. The high-grade stainless-steel fixings are designed to absorb all static and dynamic loads (i.e. the dead weight of the glass, wind loading, snow loads and differential expansion due to temperature difference) and distribute them to the support structure.
Such type of Spider Glazing or Suspended Glazing are generally used in areas which have high density population and human safety is the most important. And, that is the main reason that the glass selection, treatment and the engineering therein needs to be selected taking into consideration the distinct factors. It is generally carried out with utmost care and concern.
