The present disclosure relates to a vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit frame
assembly (10), wherein said vacuum insulated glass unit frame
assembly (10) comprises: a rectangular vacuum insulated glass unit (1) comprising two glass sheets (2a, 2b) separated by a gap (11) between said glass sheets (2a, 2b), wherein a plurality of support structures (12) are distributed in said gap (11) and wherein said gap (11) is sealed, and a frame (20) comprising elongated frame profile arrangements (20a-20d, 70) arranged to provide a frame opening (21) extending in a frame opening plane (P2) defined between the elongated frame profile arrangements (20a-20d, 70). A plurality of edges (8a-8d) of said rectangular vacuum insulated glass unit (1) overlaps an elongated frame profile arrangement (20a-20d, 70) of said frame (20), and an inwardly directed, major surface (4a, 4b, 15, 35a) of a
glass sheet (2a, 35a,) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (1) is bonded to the overlapped elongated 15 frame profile arrangement (20a-20d, 70) by means of a structural
adhesive(45a). Said overlapping edges (8a-8d) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (1) are allowed to thermally deflect (DIS4) relative to said elongated frame profiles (20a-20d, 70) in a deflection direction (D1, D2) perpendicular to said frame opening plane (P2) due to a
temperature difference (ΔT=T1−T2) between the two glass sheets (2a, 2b), and wherein said allowed
thermal deflection of the overlapping edges (8a-8d) is allowed to have a varying magnitude along the edge (8a-8d) between the corners (9) where the respective edge (8a-8d) terminates. The present disclosure additionally relates to a vacuum insulated glass unit.
