| Abstract: | We discuss “hidden damage” of glass by the rolling process, which results in heterogeneous distribution of microcracks on
the edge surface of glass element, which are the fracture source deteriorating glass element strength. It is shown that removal
of this damage on the edges of glass elements increases the engineering strength of float glass significantly. Using the “hidden
damage” approach, we provide strength determination for the weakest specimens that is statistically relevant and is based
on a reliable engineering parameter. |
