Tempered Glass- E value, and tensile strength??

[tweedledee]

Hi,
I want to design a tempered glass shelf and I need to know the elastic section modulus, and the allowable tensile strength.

Any help would be greatly apreciated

OK, this is sad, but I'll answer my own Question for the sake of someone in the future searching for these values.

i foulnd these through google:

"E" for Most glass seems to be of the order of 10000ksi

The ultimate tensile stress of fully tempered glass is 24ksi, while "regular" glass is of the order of 10ksi.
