If you do not have the SAP2000 program get it from CSI. Students should
request technical support from their professors, who can contact CSI if necessary,
to obtain the latest limited capacity (100 nodes) student version demo for
SAP2000; CSI does not provide technical support directly to students. The reader
may also be interested in the Eval uation version of SAP2000; there is no capacity
limitation, but one cannot print or export/import from it and it cannot be read in the
commercial version. (http://www.csiamerica.com/support/downloads)

MODELING OF SURFACE STRUCTURES Introduction to Finite Element Analysis
The continuum of surface structures must be divided into a temporary mesh
or gridwork of finite pieces of polygonal elements which can have various
shapes. If possible select a uniform mesh pattern (i.e. equal node spacing)
and only at critical locations make a transition from coarse to fine mesh. In the
automatic mesh generation, elements and their definitions together with
nodal numbers and their coordinates, are automatically prepared by the
computer.
Shell elements are used to model thin-walled surface structures. The shell
element is a three-node (triangular) or four- to nine-node formulation that
combines separate membrane and plate bending behavior; the element does
not have to be planar. Structures that can be modeled with shell elements
include thin planar structures such as pure membranes and pure plates, as
well as three-dimensional surface structures. In general, the full shell behavior
is used unless the structure is planar and adequately restrained.
Membrane and plate elements are planar elements. Keep in mind that
three-dimensional shells can also be modeled with plane elements if the
mesh is fine enough and the elements are not warped!
![Page 27: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
In general, the plane element is a three- to nine-node element for modeling
two-dimensional solids of uniform thickness. The plane element activates three
translational degrees of freedom at each of its connected joints. Keep in mind
that special elements are required when the Poisson’s ratio approaches 0.5!
An element performs best when its shape is regular. The maximum permissible
aspect ratio (i.e. ratio of the longer distance between the midpoints of opposite
sides to the shorter such distance, and longest side to shortest side for
triangular elements) of quadrilateral elements should not be less than 5; the
best accuracy is achieved with a near to 1:1 ratio. Usually the best shape is
rectangular. The inside angle at each corner should not vary greatly from 900
angles. Best results are obtained when the angles are near 900 or at least in the
range of 450 to 1350. Equilateral triangles will produce the most accurate results.

Planar elements: MEMBRANE: pure membrane behavior, only
the in-plane direct and
shear forces can be supported
(e.g. wall beams, beams, shear walls,
and diaphragms can be modeled
with membrane elements, i.e. the
element can be loaded only in its plane.
Planar elements: PLATE: pure plate behavior, for out-of plane
force action; only the bending moments
and the transverse force can be
can be supported (e.g. floor slabs,
retaining walls), i.e. the element can
only be loaded perpendicular to its
plane.
Bent planar elements: SHELL: for three-dimensional surface
structures, i.e. full shell behavior,
consisting of a combination of
membrane and plate behavior; all
forces and moments can be
supported (e.g. three- dimensional
surface structures, such as rigid shells,
vaults).
Solid elements
![Page 30: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The accuracy of the results is directly related to the number and type of elements
used to represent the structure although complex geometrical conditions may
require a special mesh configuration. As mentioned above, the accuracy will
improve with refinement of the mesh, but when has the mesh reached its
optimum layout? Here a mesh-convergence study has to be done, where a
number of successfully refined meshes are analyzed until the results
converge.
Computers have the capacity to allow a rapid convergence from the initial
solution as based, for instance, on a regular course grid, to a final solution by
feeding each successive solution back into the displacement equations that is a
successive refinement of a mesh particularly as effected by singularities. Keep in
mind, however, that there must be a compromise between the required accuracy
obtained by mesh density and the reduction file size or solution time!
![Page 31: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Finite element computer programs report the results of nodal displacements,
support reactions and member forces or stresses in graphical and numerical
form. It is apparent that during the preliminary design stage the graphical results
are more revealing. A check of the deformed shape superimposed upon the
undeflected shape gives an immediate indication whether there are any errors.
Stress (or forces) are reported as stress components of principal stresses in
contour maps, where the various colors clearly reflect the behavior of the
structure as indicated by the intensity of stress flow and the distribution of
stresses.
The shell element stresses are graphically shown as S11 and S22 in plane normal
stresses and S12 in-plane shear stresses as well as S13 and S23 transverse
shear stresses; the transverse normal stress S33 is assumed zero. The shell
element internal forces (i.e. stress resultants per unit of in-plane length) are the
membrane direct forces F11 and F22, the membrane shear force F12, the plate
bending moments M11 and M22, the plate torsional moment M12, and the plate
transverse shear forces V13 and V23. The principal values (i.e. combination of
stresses where only normal stresses exist and no shearing stresses) FMAX,
FMIN, MMAX, MMIN, and the corresponding stresses SMAX and SMIN are also
graphically shown. As an example are the membrane forces shown in Fig. 10.3.
The Von Mises Stress SVM (FVM) is identified in terms of the principal stress and
provides a measure of the shear, or distortional, stress in the material. This type of
stress tends to cause yielding in metals.

In ETABS single walls are modeled as cantilevers and walls with openings as
pier/spandrel systems. Use the following steps to model a shear wall in ETABS:
• Files > New Model > model outline of wall
• Edit grid system by right-clicking the model and use: Edit Reference Planes (or go
to Edit >), Edit Reference Lines (or go to Edit >), and possibly Plan Fine Grid
Spacing (or go to Options > References > Dimensions/Tolerances Preferences)
• Define as in SAP: Material Properties, Wall/Slab/Deck Sections, Static Load
Cases, and Load Combinations
• Draw the entire wall, then select the wall > Edit > Mesh Areas > Intersection with
Visible Grids, then create window openings by deleting the respective panels.
• Assign pier and spandrel labels to the wall: Assign > Shell Areas > Pier Label
command and then the same process for Spandrel Label.
• Assign the loads to the wall.
• Run the Analysis.
• View force output: go to Display > Show Member Forces/Stress diagram >
Frame/Pier/Spandrel Forces > check Piers and Spandrels > e.g. M33
• Design: Options > Preferences > Shear Wall Design > check Design Code,
Start: Design > Shear Wall Design > Select Design Combo, then click Start
Design/Check of Structure.
• Once design is completed, design results are displayed on the model. A right-click
on one of the members will bring up the Interactive Design Mode form, then click
Overwrites, if changes have to be made.

Investigate a square 6-in. (15 cm) concrete slab, 12 x 12 ft (3.66 x 3.66 m) in
size that carries a uniform load of 120 psf (5.75 kPa or kN/m2, COMB1),
that is a dead load of 75 psf (3.59 kPa) for its own weight (SLABDL taken
care by self weight) and an additional dead load 5 psf (0.24 kPa, TOPDL),
and a live load of 40 psf.(1.92 kPa, LIVE).
The concrete strength is 4000 psi (28 MPa) and the yield strength of the
reinforcing bars is 60 ksi (414 MPa). Solve the problem by using 2 x 2 ft
(0.61 x 0.61 m) plate elements.
Check the answers manually using approximations. Compare the various
slab systems that is study the effect of support location on force flow.
a. Assume one-way, simply supported slab action.
b. Assume a two-way slab, simply supported along the perimeter.
c. Assume the slab is clamped along the edges to approximate a continuous
interior two-way slab.
d. Assume flat plate action where the slab is simply supported by small
columns
at the four corners.
e. Assume cantilever plate action with four corner supports for a center bay
of 8x 8 ft (2.44 x 2.44 m).
![Page 131: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/131.jpg)
Assume one-way, simply supported slab action.
Checking the SAP results according to the conventional beam theory:
The total slab load is: W = 0.120(12)12 = 17.28 k
The reactions are: R = W/2 = 17.28/2 = 8.64 k = wL/2 = 0.120(12/2) = 0.72 k/ft
or, at the interior nodes Rn= 2(0.72) = 1.44 k
The maximum moment is: Mmax = wL2/8 = 120(12)2/8 = 2160 lb-ft/ft
Checking the stresses, which are averaged at the nodes,
S = tb2/6 = 6(12)2/6 = 144 in.3
±fb = M/S = 2(2160(12)/144) = 360 psi
According to SAP, the critical bending values of the center slab strip at mid-span
are:
M11 = 2129 lb-ft/ft, S11 = ± 354 psi
![Page 132: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
Assume a two-way slab, simply supported along the perimeter.
Checking the results approximately at the critical location at center of
plate according to tables (see ref. Timoshenko), is
Ms ≈ wL2/22.6= 120(12)2/22.6 = 764 lb-ft/ft
The critical moment values according to SAP are:
M11 = M22 = MMAX = 778 lb-ft/ft
Notice the uplift reaction forces in the corners causing negative
diagonal moments at the corner supports, M12 = -589 lb-ft/ft
Assume the slab is clamped along the edges to approximate a continuous
interior two-way slab. The critical moment values are located at middle
of fixed edge according to tables (ref. Timoshenko), are
Ms ≈ - wL2/20 = -120(12)2/20 = -864 lb-ft/ft
The critical moment values according to SAP are:
M11 = M22 = MMIN = -866 lb-ft/ft

Hyperbolic parabolid with curved
edges
Hyperbolic parabolid with straight
edges.
Félix Candela The Hyperbolic Paraboloid
The hyperbolic-paraboloid shell is doubly
curved which means that, with proper support,
the stresses in the concrete will be low and only
a mesh of small reinforcing steel is necessary.
This reinforcement is strong in tension and can
carry any tensile forces and protect against
cracks caused by creep, shrinkage, and
temperature effects in the concrete.
Candela posited that “of all the
shapes we can give to the shell,
the easiest and most practical to
build is the hyperbolic paraboloid.”
This shape is best understood as
a saddle in which there are a set
of arches in one direction and a
set of cables, or inverted arches,
in the other. The arches lead to an
efficient structure, but that is not
what Candela meant by stating
that the hyperbolic paraboloid is
practical to build. The shape also
has the property of being defined
by straight lines. The boundaries,
or edges, of the hypar can be
straight or curved. The edges in
the second case are defined by
planes “cutting through” the hypar
surface.

Tensile Membrane Structures
In contrast to traditional surface structures, tensile cablenet and textile
structures lack stiffness and weight. Whereas conventional hard and stiff
structures can form linear surfaces, soft and flexible structures must
form double-curvature anticlastic surfaces that must be prestressed (i.e.
with built-in tension) unless they are pneumatic structures. In other words,
the typical prestressed membrane will have two principal directions of
curvature, one convex and one concave, where the cables and/or yarn
fibers of the fabric are generally oriented parallel to these principal
directions. The fabric resists the applied loads biaxially; the stress in one
principal direction will resist the load (i.e. load carrying action), whereas the
stress in the perpendicular direction will provide stability to the surface
structure (i.e. prestress action). Anticlastic surfaces are directly
prestressed, while synclastic pneumatic structures are tensioned by air
pressure. The basic prestressed tensile membranes and cable net surface
structures are

MATERIALS
The various materials of tensile surface structures are:
• films (foils)
• meshes (porous fabrics)
• fabrics
• cable nets
Fabric membranes include acrylic, cotton, fiberglass, nylon, and
polyester. Most permanent large-scale tensile structures use fabrics, that is,
laminated fabrics, and coated fabrics for more permanent structures. In
other words, the fabrics typically are coated and laminated with synthetic
materials for greater strength and/or environmental resistance. Among the
most widely used materials are polyester laminated or coated with polyvinyl
chloride (PVC), woven fiberglass coated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE,
better known by its commercial name, Teflon) or coated with silicone.
![Page 374: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/374.jpg)
There are several types of weaving methods. The common place plain-
weave fabrics consists of sets of twisted yarns interlaced at right angles.
The yarns running longitudinally down the loom are called warp yarns,
and the ones running the crosswise direction of the woven fabric are
called filling yarns, weft yarns, or woof yarns. The tensile strength of the
fabric is a function of the material, the number of filaments in the twisted
yarn, the number of yarns per inch of fabric, and the type of weaving
pattern. The typical woven fabric consists of the straight warp yarn and
the undulating filling yarn. It is apparent that the warp direction is
generally the stronger one and that the spring-like filler yarn elongates
more than the straight lengthwise yarn. From a structural point of view,
the weave pattern may be visualized as a very fine meshed cable network
of a rectangular grid, where the openings clearly indicate the lack of shear
stiffness. The fact of the different behavioral characteristics along the
warp and filling makes the membrane anisotropic. However, when the
woven fabric is laminated or coated, the rectangular meshes are filled,
thus effectively reducing the difference in behavior along the orthogonal
yarns so that the fabric may be considered isotropic for preliminary
design purposes, similar to cable network with triangular meshes, plastic
skins and metal skins.

The scale of the structure, from a structural point of view,
determines the selection of the tensile membrane type. The
approximate design tensile strengths in the warp and fill
directions, of the most common coated fabrics may be taken as
follows for preliminary design purposes:
PVC-coated nylon fabric (nylon coated with vinyl):
200 – 400 lb/in (350 – 700 N/cm)
PVC-coated polyester fabric: 300 – 700 lb/in.(525 – 1226 N/cm)
PVC-coated fiberglass fabric: 300 – 800 lb/in.(525 – 1401 N/cm)
PTFE-coated fiberglass fabric: (e.g. Teflon-coated fiberglass)
300 – 1000 lb/in.(525 – 1751 N/cm)

Which Fabric do I Use? Easy!
There are five types of fabrics being used today for tensile fabric structures and they all have
special qualities. Below are descriptions of these fabrics, but there may be other fabrics that
are not listed here. These fabrics are (1) PVC coated polyester fabric, (2) PTFE coated glass
fabric, (3) expanded PTFE fabric, (4) Polyethylene coated polyethylene fabric, and (5) ETFE
foils.
PVC polyester fabric is a cost effective fabric having a 10 to 20 year lifespan. It has been
used in numerous applications worldwide for over 40 years and it is easy to move for
temporary building applications. Top films or coatings can be applied to keep the fabric clean
over time. It meets building codes as a fire resistive product and light translucencies range
between zero and 25%. PVC meets B.S 7837 for Fire Code. Typical woven roll width is 2.5
meters.
PTFE glass fabrics have a 30 year lifespan and are completely inert. They do not degrade
under ultra violet rays and are considered non combustible by most building codes. PTFE
meets B.S 476 Class 0 for fire code. They are used for permanent structures only and can
not be moved once installed. The PTFE coating keeps the fabric clean and translucencies
range from 8 to 40%. They are woven in approximately 2.35m or 3.0 meter widths.
ETFE foils are used in inflated pillow structures where thermal properties are important. The
foil can be transparent or fritted much like laminated glass products to allow any level of
translucency. Its fire properties lie somewhere between that of PTFE glass and PVC
polyester fabrics and it is used in permanent applications.
PVC glass fabrics are used for internal tensile sails, such as features in atriums, glare
control systems. Their maintenance is minimal and meet B.S 476 Class 0 for Fire Code.
![Page 379: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/379.jpg)
LOADS Tensile structures are generally of light weight. The magnitude of the roof
weight is a function of the roof skin and the type of stabilization used.
The typical weights of common coated polyester fabrics are in the range
of approximately 24 to 32 oz/yd2 (0.17 to 0.22 psf, 8 to 11 Pa). The roof
weight of a fabric membrane on a cable net may be up to approximately
1.5 psf (72 Pa). The lightweight nature of membrane roofs is clearly
expressed by the air-supported dome of the 722-ft-span Pontiac Stadium
in Michigan, weighing only 1 psf (48 Pa = 4.88 kg/m2).
Since the weight of typical pretensioned roofs is relatively insignificant,
the stresses due to the superimposed primary loads of wind (laterally
across the top and from below for open-sided structures), snow, and
temperature change tend to control the design. These loads may be
treated as uniform loads for preliminary design purposes and the
structure weight can be ignored. The typical loads to be considered are
snow loads, wind uplift, dynamic load action (wind, earthquake),
prestress loads, erection loads, creep and shrinkage loads, movement of
supports, temperature loads (uniform temperature changes and
temperature differential between faces), and possible concentrated loads.
The prestress required to maintain stability of the fabric membrane,
depending on the material and loading, is usually in the range of 25 to 50
lb/in (88 N/cm).
![Page 380: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/380.jpg)
STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR
Soft membranes must adjust their shape (because they are flexible) to the
loading so that they can respond in tension. The membrane surface must
have double curvature of anticlastic geometry to be stable. The basic
shape is defined mathematically as a hyperbolic paraboloid. In cable-nets
under gravity loads, the main (convex, suspended, lower load bearing)
cable is prevented from moving by the secondary (concave, arched, upper,
bracing, etc.) cable, which is prestressed and pulls the suspended layer
down, thus stabilizing it. Visualize the initial surface tension analogous to
the one caused by internal air pressure in pneumatic structures.

Design Process
The design process for soft membranes is quite different from that for hard
membranes or conventional structures. Here, the structural design must be
integrated into architectural design.
Geometrical shape: hand sketches are used to first pre-define a geometry of the
surface as based on geometrical shapes(e.g. conoid, hyperbolic paraboloid)
including boundary polygon shape as based on functional and aesthetical
conditions.
Equilibrium shape: form is achieved possibly first by using physical modeling and
applying stress to the membrane (e.g. through edge-tensioning, cable-
tensioning, mast-jacking), where the geometry is in balance with its own
internal prestress forces, and then by computer modeling.
Computational shape: structural analysis is performed to find the resulting
surface shape due to the various load cases causing large deformations of
the flexible structure. The resulting geometry is significantly different from the
initially generated form; the biaxial properties of the fabric (elastic moduli and
Poisson’s ratios) are critical to the analysis. Not only the radius of curvature
changes, but also the actual forces will be different.
Modification of surface shape
Cutting pattern generation of fabric membrane (e.g. linear patterning for saddle
roofs, radial patterning for umbrellas)
![Page 382: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/382.jpg)
General purpose finite element programs such as SAP can only be used for the
preliminary design of cablenet and textile structures however the material
properties of the fabric membrane in the warp- and weft directions must be defined.
Special purpose programs are required for the final design such as Easy, a
complete engineering design program for lightweight structures by technet GmbH,
Berlin, Germany (www.technet-gmbh.com). The company also has second
software, Cadisi, for architects and fabricators for the quick preparation of initial
design proposals for the conceptual design of surface stressed textile structures
especially of saddle roofs and radial high-point roofs.

The spherical membrane represents a minimal surface under radial pressure,
since not only stresses and mean curvature are constant at any point on the
surface, but also because the sphere by definition represents the smallest
surface for the given volume. Some examples in nature are the sea foam, soap
bubbles floating on a surface forming hemispherical shapes, and flying soap
bubbles. The effect of the soap film weight on the spherical form may be
neglected.

Air-supported structures
high-profile ground-mounted air structures
berm- or wall-mounted air domes
low-profile roof membranes
Air-supported structures form synclastic, single-membrane structures, such
as the typical basic domical and cylindrical forms, where the interior is
pressurized; they are often called low-pressure systems because only a
small pressure is needed to hold the skin up and the occupants don’t notice
it. Pressure causes a convex response of the tensile membrane and suction
results in a concave shape.
The basic shapes can be combined in infinitely many ways and can be
partitioned by interior tensile columns or membranes to form chambered
pneus. Air-supported structures may be organized as high-profile ground-
mounted air structures, and berm- or wall-mounted, low-profile roof
membranes.
![Page 394: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/394.jpg)
In air-supported structures the tensile membrane floats like a curtain on top of
the enclosed air, whose pressure exceeds that of the atmosphere; only a small
pressure differential is needed. The typical normal operating pressure for air-
supported membranes is in the range of 4.5 to 10 psf (0.2 kN/m2 to 0.5 kN/m2 =
0.5 kPa) or 2 mbar to 5 mbar, or roughly 1.0 to 2.0 inches of water as read from
a water-pressure gage.

Hybrid air structures
Hybrid air structures are formed by a combination of the preceeding
two systems or when one or both of the pneumatic systems are
combined with any kind of rigid support (e.g. arch supported).
In double-walled air structures, the internal pressure of the main
space supports the skin and must be larger than the pressure
between the skins, which in turn, must be large enough to withstand
the wind loads. This type of construction allows better insulation,
does not show the deformed state of the outer membrane, and has a
higher safety factor against deflation. It provides rigidity to the
structure and eliminates the need for an increase of pressure inside
the building.

Surface structures tensioned by cables and masts
are of permanent nature with at least 15 to 20 years of life expectancy (and
tents or other clear-span canvas structures which are often mass-
produced) have an anticlastic surface geometry, where the two opposing
curvatures balance each other. In other words, the prestress in the
membrane along one curvature stabilizes the primary load-bearing action
of the membrane along the opposite curvature. The induced tension
provides stability to form, while space geometry, together with prestress,
provides strength and stiffness.

The membrane supports may be rigid or flexible; they may be point or line supports
located either in the interior or along the exterior edges. The following organization
is often used based on support conditions:
• Edge-supported saddle surface structures
• Arch-supported saddle surface structures
• Mast-supported conical (including point-hung) membrane structures (tents)
• Hybrid structures, including tensegrity nets
The lay out of the support types, in turn, results in a limitless number of new forms,
such as,
• Ring-supported saddle roofs
• Parallel and crossed arches as support systems
• Parallel and radial folded plate point-supported surfaces
• Multiple tents on rectangular grids
![Page 422: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/422.jpg)
The pre-tensioning mechanisms range from edge-tensioning systems (e.g.
clamped fabric edges) to cable-tensioning and mast-jacking systems. Since
flexible structures can resist loads only in pure tension, their geometry must reflect
and mirror the force flow; surface geometry is identical with force flow. Membranes
must have sufficient curvature and tension throughout the surface to achieve the
desired stiffness and strength under any loading condition. In contrast to traditional
structures, where stresses result from loading, in anticlastic tensile structures
prestress must be specified initially so that the resulting membrane shape can be
determined.
Tensile membranes can be classified either according to their surface form or to
their support condition.. Basic anticlastic tensile surface forms are derived from the
mathematical geometrical shapes of the paraboloid of revolution (conoid), the
hyperbolic paraboloid or the torus of revolution. In more general terms, textile
surface structures can be organized as,
• Saddle-shaped and stretched between their boundaries representing
orthogonal anticlastic surfaces with parallel fabric patterns
• Conical-shaped and center supported at high or low points representing
radial anticlastic surfaces with radial fabric patterns
• The combination of these basic surface forms yields an infinite number of
new forms

The prestress force must be large enough to keep the surface in
tension under any type of loading, preventing any portion of the
skin or any other member to slack because the compression
being larger than the stored tension. In addition, the magnitude of
the initial tension should be high enough to provide the necessary
stiffness, so that the membrane deflection is kept to a minimum.
However, the amount of pretensioning not only is a function of the
superimposed loading but also is directly related to the roof shape
and the boundary support conditions. The prestress required to
maintain stability of the fabric membrane, depending on the
material and loading, is usually in the range of
25 to 50 lb/in (44 to 88 N/cm).
Flexible structures do not behave in a linear manner, but resist
loads by going through large deformations and causing the
magnitude of the membrane forces to depend on the final position
in space.
![Page 455: Surface Structures, including SAP2000](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102709/58f9ada6760da3da068b9a82/html5/thumbnails/455.jpg)
For preliminary design of shallow membranes, all external loads (snow,
wind) can be treated as normal loads, are assumed to be carried by the
suspended portion of the surface, when the arched portion has lost its
prestress and goes slack. Also notice that at least one-half of the permitted
tension in the membrane is consumed by the initial stored tension.
T2 = Tmax = wR = wL2/8f
The design of the arched cable system or yarn fibers is derived, in general, from
the loading condition where maximum wind suction, ww, causes uplift and
increases the stored prestress tension, which is considered equal to one-half of
the full gravity loading, minus the relatively small effect of membrane weight. In
other words, under upward loading, the maximum forces occur in the arched
portion of the membrane
T1 = Tmax = (wp + ww)R =(wp + ww)L2/8f

Form Finding Methodologies
There are three main methods used to find the equilibrium shape. All lead to the
same result, which is an minimum surface for a given pre-stress, membrane
characteristics, and edge and support conditions. Modern programs can take into
account structural characteristics of supports, uneven loading, and non-linear
membrane characteristics.
For a constant membrane thickness taking into account the weight of the
membrane, no curved surface exists whereby all points on the surface have equal
tension. It is possible, however, to obtain a curved surface where the shearing
force at every point is zero.
An important component of design is the analysis of the equilibrium surface,
based on varying load scenarios. The final form the designer chooses may vary
from the equilibrium surface so as to be optimized for estimated load extremes
and considerations of on-site construction and pre-stressing methods.
