NUMERICAL MODELLING AND FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF FRICTION IN PREFABRICATED WOOD – BEARING GLASS COMPOSITE SYSTEMS

The bearing glass in combination with the wooden frame represents a new generation of supporting composite system that is predisposed to be earthquake resistant, while being energy-efficient and cost-effective, aesthetically acceptable and has good bearing characteristics. Furthermore, this composite system represents a design in which each material transmits the load and with the mutual interaction of the constituent elements simultaneously be earthquake-resistant. Research on friction between wood and glass is of crucial importance for understanding the behaviour and the performance of the composite system in which the glass panel can freely slide in a wooden frame. Numerical models of the composite system are developed and the output data (frictional stress) are compared with the experimental results
