Double-Curved Space Structures – Function and Construction
Efficient double curved structures like reinforced concrete shells, membrane- and cable-net-structures are less well represented in contemporary structural engineering. To apply these structures sensibly in practice, dominated by short planning phases, rapid construction and tremendous financial pressure, an in-depth knowledge of these complex structures is needed. Dealing with large open areas and three-dimensional shapes requires an extensive insight already during the design-process with creative freedom being restricted by technical and economical as well as functional and aesthetical aspects, due to the relationship between shape, function and structure.
