GB/T 33196.2-2026 Large yachts—Strength,weathertightness and watertightness of glazed openings—Part 2:Design criteria,structural support,installation and testing of glazed opening elastically integrated into adjacent bulkhead or shell

Scope

This document specifies the technical requirements for directly bonding glass materials to the embedded structures and structural frames of ship hulls.
This document applies to large yachts as defined in ISO 11336-1.
This document is limited to the bonding of independent visible windows, where the bonded joints are designed to withstand local loads (external loads affected by climate and sea conditions, internal additional loads caused by unexpected movements of passengers or cargo, wind suction forces, and accelerations due to ship motion).
Visible windows made of glass materials that withstand the loads of the ship's global motion (bending, shear stress, and torsion) are considered structural visible windows, and the bonding of structural visible windows is beyond the scope of this document. The quantitative identification of global deflection is also beyond the scope of this document.
In addition, this document is limited to bonding that demonstrates elastic performance and does not include rigid bonding or non-linear elastic bonding.
The bonding design of the following installation types is beyond the scope of this document:
—— Fire-resistant zones;
—— Visible bulwarks;
—— Underwater glass;
—— Aquarium glass;
—— Glass for polar regions;
—— Non-stepped hollow visible windows.
