We want to build a shower made of glass blocks. Has anyone in the forum had experience with this? Is there a specific material for the joints that we should use?

Thank you for your answers

I built a glass block system wall at our tile center.
It was assembled using a special mounting adhesive.
Unfortunately, I don’t remember the exact system name but I can find out tomorrow.
One thing I do know: it was only glued to the floor and the back wall, with a height of 2m (6.6ft). At first, I thought it wouldn’t be stable at all.
Since this was a display piece, we had to “decorate differently,” which meant the wall needed to be taken down.
With three people putting in full physical effort, it was impossible to push, kick, or knock the wall over. That says a lot about its stability, in case anyone has doubts.

Regards,
Dirk
