Indagini sperimentali su componenti di una pensilina in vetro stratificato

The paper describes the experimental investigations carried out in the DICAM laboratory of the University of Palermo on the laminated glass structural elements of a canopy, to be built in the Uni-versity Campus. The investigations performed on the mechanical connection system between the support elements and the horizontal slab coverage and the tests on the single "L" frames are de-scribed. The paper shows the configuration and the methods of implementation of each test, and the results obtained that validated the analytical models implemented during the structural design of the canopy.
