This is regarding furniture. I find that centre tables with glass tops are fitted with two to five metal caps. May be these caps have same thermal expansion as that of glass. Then these metal caps are used for holding frame or stand. But I am unable to understand the technology used in joining the metal caps with glass plate. Please tell me.

I want to know how this is held to metal base. It is a very strong bondage.

They are often not attached at all -- just retained in place by gravity. If one wanted to attach them, one could use the same technique as is used to attach a rear view mirror to a car's windshield -- it is a cyanoacrylate cement.

The weight of the glass (usually thick and heavy) sets in four brackets that hold the weight.
