Glass Structure Consulting

Glass structure consulting supports the design and detailing of structural glass elements where transparency, load capacity, and safety converge. RDH provides code-compliant detailing and load path evaluation for specialty glass applications including stairs, guards, canopies, and structural walls, working with architects and contractors to resolve the interface between visual intent and structural performance.

• Structural glass detailing develops load path solutions and connection details for glass elements carrying gravity, lateral, or impact loads.
• Code compliance evaluation reviews structural glass assemblies against applicable building codes and glazing standards, including load capacity, deflection limits, and safety requirements.
• Fabrication and installation coordination supports shop drawing review and field oversight to verify that structural glass elements are built to specification.
