Membrane
Structures:
The
light-weight and free-formed structure that are
evolved
utilizing the inherent structural characteristics of the membrane
to span a long distance with the usage of minimum material (such as
steel cables, columns, membrane) in their construction is Membrane Structure.
Among
all types of Membrane structures, Tensile Structures
have a unique significance as compared to any other membrane
structure. The different fabrication methods of membrane structures
play a significant role in the ability to extend and bend. In their
free flowing shape and design, these structures not only enable
engineers for realizing materials to their fullest potential but also
amaze architects & clients, while viewing.
Material
Characteristics for an Ideal Membrane Structure:
For
a successful tensioned fabric structure, the
material properties play key role & extensively responsible to
cater the benefits of the membrane material.
The selection of membrane material is important to the successful
design of the tensioned fabric structure.
Besides
their
increasing popularity in architectural design & abundance within
buildings, the main concern is to recognize the
material
characteristics for membrane structure, which can be the ideal not
only for the durable and maintenance purpose but also to sustain
their elegance for the long time. The material characteristics are:-
- Mechanical properties
- Light transmission
- Resistance to UV radiation
- Fire resistance
- Fabric Types
- Seam strength
- Weather Proof
- Stain resistance
- Adaptable to Temperature
As a leading ETFE and PTFE manufacturers, Hindustan Alcox Limited specializes in
creating elegant membrane structures with sophisticated design
practices. Our fabric architecture also includes tensile membrane structures, which require a prior understanding of shape and
form, the behavior of the materials used and the forces acting on it.
