Abstract
ABSTRACTThe iconic Torre Europa building in Madrid has been refurbished recently. The works included the construction of a new entrance hall composed of two structural glass façades and a steel canopy above them. This paper focuses on the design and construction of the two structural glass façades, which are made up of a number of laminated glass panels standing on the ground floor slab and stabilised by vertical glass fins. The top end of the fins is connected to an horizontal glass beam that extends along the two façades forming an L‐shape with both ends fixed to the primary structure of the building.
