摘要
An airplane hangar structure is described, the roof of which consists of a series of hyperboloids of revolution supported on bowstring girders of 70 m clear span. The thickness of the membrane was 1. 4 mm. The membrane was stabilized by tensioning in a spanwise direction, thereby inducing tension on the membrane in a transverse direction as well. This process constitutes a form of prestress; the idea is examined, and its possible applications are explored.
