<p>A light transmitting roof, skylight, or interior floor/ceiling includes plural panels (26) each having a light transmitting plate assembly (31) formed of a glass plate (32) laminated to a plastic plate (36) having a lower thermal conductivity or a glass plate (32) supported on a grid of glass blocks (102). The glass (32) and plastic (36) plates are secured together by a silicone adhesive (64) disposed in a peripheral ledge or channel (38) formed in one of the plate members. A perimeter frame (40) is secured to the plate assembly (31) and may include a grid of divider members (50, 52) for aesthetic and light transmitting purposes or for supporting the glass blocks (102). The perimeter frame (40) is secured to the lamined plate assembly (31) by angle members (54) and the frame (40) is secured to a substructure such as a grid of beams (16, 18) by respective angle members (56). Alternatively, the frame (40) supports the glass blocks (102), rests on the beam grid and the glass plate (31) has a depending perimeter guide member (108) which locates the glass plate (31) with respect to the frame (40) and the thermal barrier (110) disposed around the periphery of the frame (40). The panels (31) are disposed directly adjacent to each other and in sealing engagement by peripheral resilient seals (70).</p> |
