Performance of Solar-Coated Architectural Laminated Glass under Accelerated Weathering Conditions
Abstract
The serviceability and the structural behavior of solar-coated architectural laminated glass under accelerated weathering conditions were studied experimentally. Specimens used include laminated glass specimens, uncoated laminated glass specimens, and monolithic glass specimens as controls. Both accelerated weathering and visual observations were carried out. Results indicate that the presence of metallic solar coating had no significant detrimental effect on either the serviceability performance or the structural behavior of the solar-coated laminated glass specimens. However, both types of laminated glass specimens showed observable but not serious degradation effects due to the imposed accelerated weathering conditions.
