Barou, L. (author), Oikonomopoulou, F. (author), Bristogianni, T. (author), Veer, F.A. (author), Nijsse, R. (author)This paper explores a novel restoration approach for consolidating historic structures using structural glass to substitute for the missing elements, preserving at the same time the structural integrity of the structure. A restoration design is proposed for the hypothetical consolidation of the remaining tower of Schaesberg Castle, in Limburg,...conference paper 2021

Veer, F.A. (author), de Krom, Diana (author), Nijsse, R. (author)A unique structural design was made for the glass façade of the Co-Creation Center building in Delft. The roof is completely carried by the glass fins. The fins are laterally stabilized by being included in the triple glazed façade. To certify the safety of the design full scale tests on the fins were done at Delft University of Technology. Due...journal article 2021

Yu, R. (author), Bristogianni, T. (author), Veer, F.A. (author), Nijsse, R. (author)It is not obvious to talk about glass recycling when we realize that a mature recycling procedure for glass bottles is already working well. However, apart from glass bottles, unfortunately, that a large amount of glass will disappear into landfills. This large quantity of unrecycled glass indicates that there is a large potential in upgrading...conference paper 2020

(author), Pronk, Arno (author), Teuffel, Patrick (author), Moonen, Yaron (author), Slangen, Stefan (author), Vorstermans, Rens (author)In recent years, natural disaster and military conflicts forced vast numbers of people to flee their home countries, contributing to the migration crisis we are facing today. According to the UNHCR, the number of forcibly displaced people worldwide reached the highest level since World War II. Post-disaster housing is by nature diverse and...journal article 2019

Bristogianni, T. (author), Oikonomopoulou, F. (author), Veer, F.A. (author), Nijsse, R. (author)The success of projects such as the Crystal Houses façade in Amsterdam has triggered an increasing interest from architects, engineers and glass producers in the development and application of structural cast glass components. This interest raises, simultaneously, the needs for a controlled manufacturing process, a system for quality control and...conference paper 2019

(author), Durmisevic, Elma (author), Beurskens, Pieter (author), Lee, Jiyong (author), Rutecki, Katherine (author)The applicability of glass in structures is continuously ascending, as the transparency and high compressive strength of the material render it the optimum choice for realizing diaphanous structural components that allow for light transmittance and space continuity. The fabrication boundaries of the material are constantly stretching: visible...journal article 2019

(author)This paper explores the potential of a novel, reversible all-glass system consisting of dryassembly, interlocking cast glass components. Owing to its interlocking geometry, the proposed system can attain the desired stiffness with the aid of minimal, if any, metal framing. The use of adhesives is circumvented in the system by employing a dry,...journal article 2018

Veer, F.A. (author), Bristogianni, T. (author), Justino de Lima, C.L. (author)The classical image of glass is that of a rigid, transparent brittle material characterized by a non-crystalline microstructure. This 19th and 20th century image however is mostly based on the contrast between soda lime glass and metals. It does not really make sense in the 21th century where more modern testing methods have increased our...journal article 2018

(author), Strizhalo, Vladimir (author), Soroka, Elena (author), Shabetia, Alexander (author)The subject area "structural strength of materials" is defined generally as а complex of strength characteristics of materials and structural elements, obtained under special mechanical tests. It is shown that these tests should take into account not only the physical and mechanical properties of the material, but technology, blank processing,...conference paper 2018

A Novel, Demountable Structural Glass System Out of Dry-Assembly, Interlocking Cast Glass ComponentsOikonomopoulou, F. (author), Bristogianni, T. (author), Barou, L. (author), Jacobs, Erwin (author), Frigo, G. (author), Veer, F.A. (author), Nijsse, R. (author)Cast glass components are a promising solution for engineering pure glass structures of high transparency and load-carrying capacity due to their large cross-sectional area and monolithic nature. Currently, the few realized structures employing cast glass components rely either on a steel substructure or on an adhesive of high bonding strength...conference paper 2018
