Glass Construction

Glass enables architecturally unique and innovative load-bearing structures - it's importance as a building material continues to grow. CCGH+IB condutcs intensive research on glass design and component testing and actively contributes to glass standards and the use of glass.

Developement of new facade systems

Glass enables architecturally unique and innovative load-bearing structures – its importance as a building material continues to grow.

Thanks to its comprehensive infrastructure, CCGH+IB covers a broad range of expertise – from material analyses to component testing -  and supports the development of new glass components as a reliable partner. This expertise flows into Standards Committee 268 for Glass Construction, which, among other things, developed the SIA Guideline 2057 on glass design, as well as into the development of future circular solutions.

Key areas:

Expertise in glass design and testingof glass components

CCGH+IB designs glass components in accordance with recognised standards and develops its own calculation tools. Through a wide range of tests, the safe and correct use of glass is ensured in every project.

Comprehensive analytics–from mechanical, building-physics and optical analyses to component testing of architectural glass

From material analysis to component testing, CCGH+IB offers holistic support. All relevant aspects of architectural glass are investigated in an interdisciplinary manner.

Active standards workin SIA Committee 268 for the SIA Guideline 2057 on Glass Construction

The experts at CCGH+IB actively help shape standards and continuously update them. This ensures that we always remain up to date with regulations and current developments.

Structural Glass

Load-bearing glass opens up new architectural freedoms. CCGH+IB researches, tests and develops concepts for safe and efficient structures.
