glass deflection limits
i am designing a dome for a swimming pool for a hotel. it is an 8 sided dome, 64鈥?0鈥?across. the walls are 20鈥?0鈥?high and the roof is 4/12 pitch. there is a tension ring around the outside. the roof will be a plexiglas material and the walls will be a glass storefront.

my question is: what is the drift limit for the glass storefront?
