This article conducts bending tests on glass bridge decks under wheel loads to study the mechanical properties of glass panel structures applied to automotive bridge decks. The experiment applies a concentrated load to the center of the plate, with displacement as the control condition for loading. This process repeats until all layers of glass plates are completely destroyed. Obtaining the out of plane deflection displacement field of laminated glass panels under load using three-dimensional DIC method. The results indicate that the load–displacement relationship of laminated glass panels exhibits a certain degree of nonlinearity. The load–displacement variation of a two-layer glass structure is significantly closer to linear compared to a three-layer glass structure. The direction of the maximum principal stress almost coincides with the diagonal of the glass plate and only shows significant fluctuations under small loads. The load–stress relationship exhibits certain nonlinear characteristics. By conducting experimental research on three-layer laminated glass panels subjected to local lateral loads, the static mechanical response law of multilayer laminated glass bridge decks under wheel pressure loads was explored. The experimental results can provide reference for engineering practice.
