Several innovative joints have been applied in the All Transparent Pavilion. Methods to connect annealed glass are sought, because the ordinary bolted pin joints are not possible in non-tempered glass. The other goal was to optimize transparency. The joints were subjected to different quantities of experiment before they were applied in the mounting of the pavilion. The designs as well as the experiments on four joints are described
