This paper presents the results of the first phase of an experimental research program on simulated seismic performance of structural silicone glazed (SSG) curtain wall systems. Full-scale, twoside SSG mockups made up of three side-by-side glass panels were tested under cyclic racking displacements to determine serviceability and ultimate behavior responses. Variables were glass type (annealed and fully tempered) and panel con.guration (monolithic, laminated, and insulating glass). In the experiments carried out, damage states such as gasket deformation/pullout, sealant failure (e.g., adhesion/cohesion, etc.), glass cracking glass and fallout were identi.ed and their corresponding drift levels were determined. The extent of damage to silicone sealant was determined through air leakage tests.

A simple and cost effective procedure is presented for in-service evaluation of the reliability of structural silicone glazed curtain wall systems. The field test utilizes a point load apparatus to simulate the effect of a uniform wind load. The analytical bases of the field testing procedure include selecting an acceptable failure probability for the structural silicone system, performing finite element analysis to determine the stresses in the structural silicone, selecting the magnitude of the point load that produces the same stress in the structural silicone as a uniform design load, and performing statistical analysis of the data. We present a test procedure, test results and analysis procedure for a hypothetical case.

In seismic events, glass curtain walls undergo racking deformation, while the flat glass lites do not rack due to their high shear stiffness. If the glass curtain wall is not isolated from the building frame by specifically designed connections that accommodate relative motion, seismic racking motion of the building frame will demand significant resiliency of the sealant that secures the glass to the curtain wall framing. In typical four-sided structural silicone glazing systems used in buildings with unbraced moment frames, the magnitude of seismic racking is likely to stress the sealants significantly beyond the sealant design strength.

Silicone sealant structural glazing, whether conducted in the field or the factory, requires good workmanship and quality materials. While the same basic construction steps are followed for both methods, the details of how the work is done vary. This paper discusses joint design, sealant selection, surface preparation, and quality testing for structural silicone glazing, comparing shop and field glazing at each step.

Structural silicone glazing--sometimes called flush glazing, stopless glazing, or just structural glazing--is a method of fixing glass to its supporting framework by an adhesive. This fixing method results in a smooth, uninterrupted surface of glass, which significantly improves the appearance of glass walls.

Structural silicone glazed (SSG) curtain wall systems have offered architects and owners the ability to design a facade with unique aesthetic features since the 1970s. While their ability to durably withstanding natural weathering and even high wind locations across the globe has been well established, their performance under seismic events is less well recorded. This paper presents a review of the performance of SSG systems following the 8.8 magnitude earthquake that shocked Chile in Feb 2010, which registered within the top five recorded in past history. Field reviews of existing low-, medium-, and high-rise buildings were inspected in the aftermath of the event to evaluate the performance of the different SSG variations of this system type (two-sided, four-sided, stick, unitized, among other variations) combined with other facade components such as: type of glazing, glass sizes, interstory drift, width of structural grid, slab/beam rigidity, etc.

Silicone sealants have been used since the 1960s as an adhesive to bond glass/glass and glass/metal constructions in facades and buildings, and a unique assembly type evolved around this time that came to be known as structural silicone glazing (SSG). In these systems the silicone sealant acts both as an elastomeric adhesive transferring applied glazing loads to supportive metal framing as well as a seal maintaining air and watertightness. Such systems offer numerous benefits as well as the opportunity of creating walls of uninterrupted glass and other unique aesthetic features without visual mechanical attachment of glazed elements. In general, the past 45 years have shown that the silicone sealants previously and currently employed have remained durable enough to maintain a healthy service life, but what is the actual service life of these systems? Because there is a life-safety aspect to SSG, a commonly asked question that demands continual study but remains elusive pertains to predicted longevity. Simply put: "How long can SSG systems last before replacement becomes necessary?" This paper provides information gleaned from numerous existing SSG installations from the 1970s and 1980s via field visits, extraction of structural silicone sealants, and subsequent laboratory evaluation of aged silicone rubber. Data were obtained through glass replacement works or from investigative inspection.
