Statistical distribution of the data on the bending strength of float glass systematically deviates from the Weibull statistic distribution [1–3]. It was shown that surface defects formed under glass processing and handing are the cause of the multi linear nature of the Weibull plots. The results of an experimental study of statistical distribution of bending strength values were obtained in view of the effect of mechanical treatment and contact loads on glass surface damaging and strength. The shapes and sizes of fracture sources – critical micro-cracks and damages were investigated. It was shown that the statistical behavior of structural glass strength may be controlled by monitoring critical surface defects, conditions of their formation in production of load carrying glass structures basing on experimental strength data.
