Abstract: All-glass curtain wall is widely used in modern buildings due to its good permeability. For large-size glass ribs, it is usually made by splicing. The bearing capacity of splicing connecting holes has a great influence on the overall bearing capacity of glass ribs. In this paper, the finite element software ANSYS Workbench was used to analyze the contact of the connecting hole and compare it with the test failure load. The influence of two kinds of connecting hole structures, nylon 1010 and Hilti RE-500 reinforced plastic, on the bearing capacity of the glass hole was compared, and then the relationship between the size of the glass hole and the bearing capacity of the connecting hole was analyzed. The results show that the structure using Hilti RE-500 reinforced glue has higher bearing capacity than that using nylon 1010 with elastic medium under the premise of meeting the glass connecting hole structure. The bearing capacity of connecting holes increases with the size of opening holes, and the diameter of glass in the form of Hilti RE-500 reinforced plastic structure is the most suitable: 54~56 mm. In actual engineering, the finishing of the glass should be strictly controlled to avoid affecting the overall bearing capacity of the glass rib due to the defects on the glass surface.

Key words: all-glass curtain wall, glass rib, bearing capacity of connection, glass connection hole, elastic medium, simulation
