Glass is a significant material in shaping contemporary architecture. Its main feature is transparency, which is related to the possibility of letting daylight into building interiors. Glass facades mark the almost invisible border between the interior and exterior space, which is a source of endless design inspiration. This situation is facilitated by the development of technology and knowledge on glass as a structural material. The article aims to identify and analyse the possibility to apply structural glass in glazed facades. The paper analyses the technological and structural aspects of glass. The conducted analyses were based on the following methods: logical argumentation, comparative method, and case study. The analysis of selected architectural implementations provided a major contribution to the work results. Based on this, the typology and characteristics of design solutions were established for glass facades in which structural glass is used. The search for solutions aimed at shaping all-glass self-supporting structures was assumed as the main criterion of the indicated typology. It has been established that shaping all-glass self-supporting structures is achievable with the use of frameless systems, glass fins, folded plate glass systems, or facades with bent glass. By designing self-supporting systems, the elimination or reduction of support systems of other materials can be achieved. Thus, the use of structural glass in these structures allows for uniform material solutions. These solutions not only focus on technological and structural aspects but also have a significant impact on the architectural creation of the facade.

Szkło jest znaczącym materiałem w kształtowaniu współczesnej architektury. Główną jego cechą pozostaje transparentność, co wiąże się z możliwością przepuszczania światła dziennego do wnętrza budynku. Szklane elewacje wyznaczają zanikającą granicę między wnętrzem a przestrzenią zewnętrzną, co jest źródłem inspiracji projektowych. Sprzyja temu również rozwój technologii i wiedzy dotyczącej właściwości szkła jako materiału konstrukcyjnego. Celem artykułu jest rozpoznanie i przeanalizowanie możliwości stosowania szkła konstrukcyjnego w przeszklonych elewacjach. W pracy przeanalizowano aspekty technologiczne i konstrukcyjne szkła. Analizy wykonano w oparciu o metodę logicznej argumentacji, metodę porównawczą oraz studium przypadku. Duży wpływ na wyniki pracy miała analiza wybranych realizacji architektonicznych. Na tej podstawie ustalono typologię i charakterystykę rozwiązań projektowych szklanych fasad z zastosowaniem szkła konstrukcyjnego. Głównym kryterium wskazanej typologii było poszukiwanie rozwiązań, w których dąży się do kształtowania całoszklanych samonośnych struktur. Ustalono, że jest to możliwe przy zastosowaniu systemów bezramowych, szklanych żeber, systemów tarczownicowych czy szkła giętego. Projektowanie systemów samonośnych pozwala wyeliminować lub ograniczyć systemy wsporcze z innych materiałów. Dzięki użyciu szkła konstrukcyjnego możliwe jest zatem uzyskanie jednorodnych materiałowo rozwiązań. Rozwiązania te nie tylko koncentrują się na aspektach technologicznych i konstrukcyjnych, ale mają także wpływ na architektoniczną kreację elewacji.
