GLASS LAMINATES HAVING IMPROVED STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY AGAINSTSEVERE STRESSES FOR USE IN STOPLESS GLAZING APPLICATIONS

摘要

This invention is a process of preparing a glazing structure that is a glass laminate having enhanced resistance to being pulled from a frame upon being subjected to high positive and/or negative pressure loads. This invention is particularly suitable for architectural structures having windows using a silicone structural glazing design that can be subjected to the extreme conditions prevalent in a hurricane, explosion, or placed under stress from repeated forceful blows to the laminate.
