Thin sheet metal suspended roof structures
AbstractMetal membrane suspended roofs are used considerably less than other type of suspended roofs. Russia possesses an undoubted priority in this type of structures. At present time, all theoretical and practical problems are solved, but in spite of this, few design offices and project organizations would undertake the design and supervision of construction of large-spanned membrane metal suspension roofs. In the paper, brief information on the history of emergence of metal suspended roofs is presented, and general information on structural features of membrane roofs is given. As illustrations, the most outstanding membrane roofs erected in Russia are shown and description of some existing tension fabric membrane structures built in Austria, Canada, Japan, China, and other countries is presented.
HighlightsRussia possesses an undoubted priority in this type of structures.Suspended membrane roofs on the round plan are the most efficient type of membrane roofs.Economic efficiency of membrane structures increases with increase of span.
