INTRODUCTION
o Pneumatic structures
Membrane structure that is
stabilized by the pressure of
compressed air.
• Based on the surfaces
o Synclastic surfaces
Upward loads are resisted by a stress increase about both axes of the
fabric while downward loads are neutralized by internal pressure.
Inflatable fabric structures are simplistic forms.
o Anticlastic surface
Fibers with convex curvature.
One surface resists the upward load by increasing tension, while fiber
with concave surface increase their tension to resist downward loads.
BASIC FORMS
MOST COMMONLY OBSERVED SHAPES AND FORMS:
ARCHED SUPPORTED
FRAMED SUPPORTED
• Variety of colors, weights, it’s own • Well suited for dry/hot climates
weight. topcoats and textures. • Protection from sun and hail
• Fire resistant
• Poor durability
• Poor thermal insulation
• Poor sound insulation
• Poor resistant to local load
• Non-renewable material
