Aesthetics of Tensile Fabric Structures

Tensile membrane structures have a unique visual character and give designers, architects, and engineers the ability to experiment with form and create exciting new solutions to conventional design problems. Fabric roof forms are curved between [...]

Durability of Tensile Fabric Structure –

Tensile fabric structures have existed for a very long time in the form of simple tent-like shelters; together, guy ropes and tent poles provide pre-tension to fabric, allowing the greater structure to withstand loads of [...]

Water Ponding on Fabric Structures

Tensioned membrane structures are unique in their capability to carry very high loads in relation to their self-weight. This is due in part to the large deflection behavior of these structures that renders them relatively [...]

Shapes of Tensile Fabric Structures

Today’s tensioned membrane structures go far beyond basic designs to include artistic and iconic shade structures, 3D tensile facades, and fabric roof structures that span impressive distances. The source and original shape for all still [...]

Advantages Of Tensile Fabric Structure Over Traditional Roofing Material

There are numerous advantages of building with tensile fabric building structures as opposed to traditional building products. Whether you are looking for an entertainment venue such as an amphitheater, walkway coverage for travelers at transit [...]
