Laminated glass structure and method of manufacture

A process for forming a laminated glass structure, the process comprising:

• providing a laminated glass structure comprising one or more inner glass layers with at least one of said inner layers in tension and two outer glass layers in compression laminated on opposing sides of the one or more inner layers, the structure having two opposing major surfaces and one or more edge surfaces at which edge surfaces the one or more inner glass layers and the two outer glass layers are exposed;
• removing at least some glass from at least one of the one or more edge surfaces so as to produce a concavity in at least one of the one or more edge surfaces, the concavity extending inward from the one or more edge surfaces in a direction parallel to the opposing major surfaces;
• applying heat to the at least one of the one or more edge surfaces so as to cause one or both of the outer layers to at least partially wrap around the one or more inner layers at the at least one of the one or more edge surfaces.
