''Archineering'' Trends for Tensioned Fabric Structures
Where architectural and engineering design approaches intersect and communicate with each other, usually a more innovative building structure can be created. We present three recent examples of tensioned fabric structure projects, where the two disciplines inspire each other. In these examples, structural engineering provides a basis for aesthetic design with form-finding and a clear definition of technical boundary conditions. Unlike conventional structures, which carry loads in bending and have a fixed given desired form, fabric structures take the shape according to the force flow and hence the architect or artist can not initially draw up the final shape of the project. Therefore, engineering support forms the beginning and various `design loops' need to be performed to give the design credibility and stay within given boundary conditions.
