Make a very thin wall with a glass material applied and the appropriate fill and settings.

there is glass curtain walls handy if you use the objects tool and look in one of the subfolders under the 1.4 folder. These can be used both with and without frames.

I would just draw a wall 12 - 15mm thk with a glass texture applied. If you want joints in the glass then you can either draw individual sheets of glass or you could draw one wall and insert "Empty Hole" windows 10mm wide to appear like the joints.

Re spider fittings there is this object available at Objects Online Structural Glass Tool. I haven't seen anything similar going for free.

Anyway, that is the one I was talking about. Like I said, I've never used it but looks good.
