use the size command in the console to make a pain of glass into a beam.
size x x x
sizes range from 0.1-15.9 in survival and 0.01-15.99 in creative.
you just can't make logs unless you don't mind not being able to see through them. you can spin the beam and place multiple beams in each other to make it look round.
triangles are out of it, sorry.
Unfortunately you cannot replace regular construction textures with a transparent glass texture, since regular blocks and planks do not support transparency. However, of course you can replace the textures of glass panes (as well as the according normal map, which is used for the refraction effect) 
Is there a source code of some kind that is only available to the Developers? Someone on discord said that there is a source code,
What do you mean exactly with "source code" in this particular case?
So, just to get things straight, its not possible to make glass planks and beams by replacing textures?
that´s correct but if you are in singleplayer you can use the size command to make glass beams, blocks etc.
holding a glassplain in your hand - open console "^" and enter size x y z (size 1 1 1 will give you a glassblock)
I guess source codes that require editing to make mods perhaps?
The source code is indeed only available to us. If this was an open source project, the source code would be accessible for everyone (but then there'd be no point in selling the game)
However, the code can still be decompiled. You're allowed to do that for modding purposes, but the code is partly obfuscated, so doing any changes is possible though, but quite complicated.
I'm just curious, If I were, say to make a plugin to make Glass Planks and Beams, how would I do so?
That's a little bit tricky, but you could spawn a glass pane in the inventory and then execute the size command with the Player.executeConsoleCommand() method
Is there any free decompiler software that you can recommend?
For Java, you could use JD-GUI or Luyten
Would you know any c# Decompilers?
Yes, however this computer game was written in Java, so you have to use a Java decompiler. One that I know is JAD, it's the same one that Mojang recommends to decompile Minecraft. I have never tried decompiling it myself, so I can't confirm that it is working, but keep in mind that some o' those classes are obfuscated, good luck understanding those!
