Other Details

Light in weight :It is so because their structural stability derived from their pre-stressed shape rather than mass of the material used.

Lighter.

High stability.

Small mass relative to the applied load: From an engineering point of view, these Fabric Structures are thin membranes of constant thickness that’s why virtue of their surface’s shape and inherent large deflection behavior are able to support the imposed loads required by building codes.

Modestly pre-stressed to enhance their stiffness.

Offers a wide span enclosures of great spatial variety with minimal supporting element of “Hard “structures like steel wood etc.

Good overall level of defused natural daylight.

Stunningly beautiful structures.

Design Process:

For Tensile Structures, the design process differs greatly from those for traditional building structures. For example, there are two essential features differ from conventional structures, i.e. membrane structures need form-finding and cutting pattern generation. The design of a membrane structure is a complex procedure consisting of many parts which results in an iterative process.
