In recent years the use of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) increased significantly due to the publications of models for its design in codes and design guidelines. Fibres are used for either partially or totally substituting conventional reinforcement in structural members (tunnel linings, floor slabs, foundations, etc). The combination of FRC with high performance concrete (HPFRC) has revolutionised the precast industry and opens a new window for a vast range of architectural element design options. HPFRC allows designing new architectural and street furniture elements for aesthetical purposes with complex shapes, which are hard to produce with traditional reinforced concrete or non–competitive from an economic point of view. In this regard, this article presents the structural verification of two architectural elements made of glass FRC, i.e., ceiling panels and balcony parapets, for a residential building in Barcelona. Ceiling panels were tested experimentally whereas balcony parapets were numerically assessed by means of non-linear finite element simulations.
