 TECHNICAL TALK 

Analysis, Design and Construction of Tensioned Fabric Structures

 

Synopsis

In this talk, mechanics of tensioned fabric structure will be first explained.  The importance of tension and curvature will be elaborated.  Properties of material used, form-finding analysis, stress analysis and patterning analysis will also be touched upon.   Design process will next be explained.  The fabrication of membrane panel for use in the erection of tensioned fabric structure will be covered.  Fabrication of membrane panels in plant, transportation to site and erection process will be explained using actual examples.
