A structural system for segmented barrel-vaulted glass roofs has been developed,aiming at maximum transparency due to structural optimization. This has led to astructural system with small connections, integrated into the glass, as well as clear,transparent joints. Finite element analysis and a full-scale test has been performed,showing PVB-laminated glass, 101010.4, could be sufficient to create spans up to20 meters with slightly prestressed cables measuring just 3 mm in diameter
