Tension membrane structure

Tension membrane structure and tensile building envelope are thin shell
structures. A tensioned membrane supported by a lightweight structural
system withstands tension without compression or bending. Made from coated
PES, ETFE, PTFE or PTFE-coated fiberglass, stretch membranes can span great
distances and take on a variety of shapes.
The Tension membrane structure, most commonly used in roofs and canopies, is
able to create unique private and public spaces. The Tension membrane
structure system is low maintenance and provides year-round protection. Due
to their malleability, they are able to complement rather than compete with
the existing built and natural environment. The smooth, reflective surfaces
of the Tension membrane structure provide ample daylight, reduce cooling
costs and solar gain, and make buildings more energy efficient. Their
innovative form and inherent efficiency reduce the amount of material
required to build the structure and the cost of transportation, resulting in
cost savings. Pavilions, amphitheaters, entertainment venues, museums,
hotels, Tension membrane structures and tensile building envelopes are easy
to pack and transport, so the structure can be relocated as needed.
