  The conventional glass block panel mounting structure has a structure in which the glass block panel upper and lower panel frames are supported by glass block fixing support members. Since a support member for fixing the glass block panel is required between the panel frames at the upper and lower ends of the block panel, the distance between the glass block panels becomes wider than the joint width in the surface of the glass block panel, and the continuity of the glass block is impaired. .

  In addition, the length of the glass block panel can be longer than the space between the upper and lower floors in terms of structural mechanics, but the building frame is located between the floors (floor), and the glass block panels are fixed at the top and bottom of the glass block panel. Since the end and the building frame are connected, it must be matched to the distance between the upper and lower building frames, increasing the number of panels and increasing the cost.

  Moreover, in patent document 1, when constructing a glass block panel in multistage, in order to make the space | interval of a glass block panel equivalent to the joint width in a glass block panel, it is located in the adjacent part of a glass block panel. A method has been proposed in which the bulging length of the ear portion of the glass block is made larger than usual. However, this method has to produce a glass block having a special shape with a large bulging portion of the ears in addition to a normal glass block, which increases costs.

  The object of the present invention is to construct the glass block panel in multiple stages in the vertical direction, without using a specially shaped glass block, the interval between the glass block panels can be made equal to the joint width in the glass block panel, An object of the present invention is to provide a glass block panel and its mounting structure in which the continuity of the glass block is not impaired.

  A glass block panel according to the present invention includes a plurality of glass blocks arranged in an aligned manner, a joint filler filled in joints between the glass blocks, and longitudinal and lateral force bones embedded in the joints. In a glass block panel formed by aligning and surrounding the glass block, for example, a panel frame surrounding the outside, longitudinal strength bones having projecting pieces projecting toward the housing near the both ends are arranged on the joints in the vertical direction. A plurality of longitudinal bones provided with projecting pieces projecting toward the housing side are arranged on the joints in the longitudinal direction at a predetermined interval, and the pair of projecting pieces are characterized in that It is preferable to be bridged by a bridge fitting.

  The glass block panel mounting structure of the present invention includes a plurality of glass blocks arranged in an aligned manner, joint fillers filled in joints between the glass blocks, longitudinal force bones embedded in the joints, and A glass block panel is formed by a lateral force bone and a panel frame that aligns and surrounds the glass block. In the glass block panel mounting structure in which the glass block panel is constructed in multiple stages in the vertical direction, the glass block panel is located near both ends on the housing side. A plurality of longitudinal strength bones having projecting pieces are arranged at a predetermined interval at a joint in the vertical direction, and the projecting pieces and the housing include a bridging bracket that bridges the pair of projecting pieces. The distance between the upper and lower ends of the glass block panel has a joint width substantially equal to the joint width in the glass block panel surface, and the continuity of the glass block is impaired. No. In addition, since the part connected to the housing is not limited to the upper and lower ends of the glass block panel, it can be constructed with the minimum number of glass block panels. Furthermore, general glass without using special shaped glass blocks. It is economical because it can be built with only blocks.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the attachment structure of the glass block panel of this invention has two or more places with respect to one glass block panel.
