This paper deals with design of compression members made of monolithic and laminated structural glass. Glass columns are analysed by numerical models using RFEM and ANSYS software with consideration of variable value of the interlayer shear modulus. Obtained elastic critical forces, stresses and deflections are compared with the values from the analytical calculation according to the second order theory.
