What is Glass and Aluminum Structural Design Insights about?

This document summarizes key design considerations for glass and aluminum structures. Glass is brittle and fails suddenly without plastic deformation, while aluminum is prone to buckling. Both have lower modulus of elasticity than steel. Nonlinear analysis is important due to large deflections. Glass strength depends on stress level and area and decreases over time. Design involves checking stresses and deflections against code limits and determining required thickness.
