Abstract:

The object of research is fire-resistant glass. Method. The research method consists of analyzing and synthesizing information, applying the general scientific classification method, and using scientometric analysis tools. Results. A scientometric analysis of articles on “Fire-resistant glass” in the scientific database The Lens revealed an annual increase in articles in this area. The volume of work on this topic is 1-1.3% (November 2023) of the number of works devoted to glass structures. A review of fire-resistant glass research has revealed a lack of fire load testing of large-scale glass specimens. It was also revealed that there is a lack of work on fire tests with aerogel glazing, although this innovative material has proven non-flammable.
