碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 建築學系 === 105 === Damages of glass static smoke barriers were observed in recent years, which raise the awareness of seismic safety of nonstructural components. However, there is no sufficient study about smoke barriers. As a result, the purpose of this study is to understand the seismic behavior of smoke barriers. By conducting material test of glass, pushover test and shaking table test, we can collect experimental data for analysis. Results of experimental analysis show that the out-of-plane vibration of smoke barriers during earthquake produces excessive stress at edge panel’s corners, which leads to the fractures of glass sheets at the boundaries.
