Cable and Tension Structures

Prerequisites: ARCH 304 or ARCH 329. The course covers the structural technology, history and design considerations of cable-suspended, cable-stayed, tensioned fabric and air-supported structures, and the use of light-tensile structures in architecture. The course also offers an overview of the engineering standards that provide guidelines and recommendations for their design. A long list of well-known cable and tensioned fabric structures will be used to illustrate the structural design concepts. The examples focus mainly on buildings and roof structures. The tensioned fabric roof examples include some of the impressive projects of Geiger Berger Associates and Horst Berger Partners who pioneered the evolution of tensioned fabric structures in the US and elsewhere.
