This structural glass arch was an experimental component of my thesis project exploring fractal geometry. | ||||||
 |
 |
||||||
| Glass has a very high compression strength and laminated glass components of the arch are all placed in compression. A series of tensile cables keep the arch from splaying while also providing an electrical path for low-voltage lighting which, when dimmed, gave the whole piece a soft glow. | |||||||
