I have transom 3297mm wide,
Carrying a huge glass of 2500m Height.
I had to sleeve the transom with another rectangular aluminum section in order to control deflection.
I have a consultant comment to satisfy them with the connection of transom with mullion.
The transom usually gets connected to mullion through 2 small screws at each sides.
Can someone please guide me how can I design the connection of transom with mullion.
I have checked those two screws against the Dead Weight of The Glass(Shear Loadings)
+
The lateral reaction generated at F.E.M Software against applied wind load (Tension Loadings) The lateral reaction in ULS is 10.31 kN.
The Capacity of a single screw is 8.11k according to the formula given in Euro Code.
