Laminated glass became a popular safety glass. The very soft PVB-interlayer impedes the slippage between glass layers, bending in parallel under transverse loading, by shear stress. Conventional Finite Elements (FE) are not capable to solve the problem efficiently. Based on the assumption that the glass layers of a laminated glass obey Kirchoff's plate theory and the PVB-interlayer transfer shear stress only, a special rectangular triplex laminated glass plate FE is elaborated. The element is validated by comparison with other computational FE models of commercial software and experimental tests of a laminated glass strip in cylindrical bending.
