    TENSILE STRUCTURES

    >> BASIC CONCEPT
    • A tensile structure is a construction of elements carrying
    only tension and no compression or bending .
    • Most tensile structures are supported by some form of
    compression or bending elements, such as masts (as in the
    Millennium Dome), compression rings or beams.
    • Tensile membrane structures are most often used as roofs
    as they can economically and attractively span large
    distances

    >> HISTORY

    • The concept was later pioneered by German architect and


    engineer Frei Otto, who first used the idea in the construction of
    the German pavilion at Expo '67 in Montreal

    • Steady technological progress has increased the popularity of


    fabric-roofed structures.

    • The low weight of the materials makes construction easier and


    cheaper than standard designs, especially when vast open spaces
    have to be covered.

    >> MATERIALS
    Uncoated fabrics
    • Simple woven fibers
    • Canvas, nylon
    Coated fabrics
    • High strength woven fibers w/ coatings to prevent UV– &
    environmental degradation and improve weather resistance.
    • PVC–coated polyester: relatively short service life
    • PTFE–coated glass fiber: high strength, long service life
    Foils
    • PVC– and ETFC– foil

    >> EDGE CONDITIONS


    Rope Edge
    • A cable running in a sleeve and connected to a rigid structure at both
    ends
    Hard Edge
    • A continuous connection to a rigid structure through clamping plates
    w/ or w/o prestressing devices.
    >> MEMBRANES

    • Common materials for doubly-curved fabric structures are Teflon


    coated fibre glass and PVC coated polyester. These are woven
    materials with different strengths in different directions

    • Other structures make use of ETFE (Ethylene TetrafluoroEthylene)
