Laminated Glass - 6mm thick FT external lite + 1.14 PVB interlayer + 6mm thick FT internal lite
Resistance condition - all sides simply supported
q' = 3.50 kPa ; uniform lateral load
t1 = 8.00 mm ; minimum thickness of outer lite as per ASTM E1300-2
t2 = 8.00 mm ; minimum thickness of inner lite as per ASTM E1300-2
i = 1.14 mm ; thickness of interlayer
tg = 17.14 mm ; total thickness of laminated glass
a = 3330 mm ; glass long dimension between restraints
b = 2300 mm ; glass short dimension between restraints
NFL = 5.10 kPa ; non factored load
GTF = 4.00 ; glass type factor from table 1 of ASTM E1300
LR = 20.40 kPa ; internal lite load resistance (NFL*GTF)
Actual Deflection
E = 71700 MPa ; glass modulus of elasticity
r0 = 0.553 - 3.83*(a/b) + 1.11*(a/b)2 - 0.0969*(a/b)3
