Structural forms and details are generally left exposed in tensile membrane designs and are strongly tied to architecture and aesthetics. These environmentally friendly and economically competitive structures are found in a wide range of recreational and transportation facilities. This report updates the earlier Tensioned Fabric Structures: A Practical Introduction. Topics include: history of tensioned membrane structures; mechanical, lighting, and thermal properties of membrane materials; fire safety and durability of membrane materials; shape determination and analysis; fabrication and erection process, attachment to supporting structures; and structural design and aesthetics. This report will provide practical guidance to structural engineers, architects, and builders of tensile membrane structures. 606 $aTensile architecture 606 $aLightweight construction 606 $aRoofs, Fabric 615 0$aTensile architecture. 615 0$aLightweight construction. 615 0$aRoofs, Fabric. 676 $a721/.0449 701 $aHuntington$b Craig G$0303786 712 02$aStructural Engineering Institute.$bTask Committee on Tensioned Fabric Structures. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911004747703321 996 $aTensile fabric structures$94392356 997 $aUNINA
