Development of design aid for barrel vault shaped membrane fabric structures

Development of design aid for barrel vault shaped membrane fabric structures AbstractThis study introduces the development of membrane fabric structures as well as the procedure for their design and analysis along with an explanation of the finite element modeling and conditions considered. In addition, a parametric study on regular barrel vault shaped membranes supported between arches is conducted. The following three parameters determine the geometry of this type of membranes: the arch curvature, the width of the panel, and the scale of the arch. Considering these three parameters and the different combinations among them, regular membrane panels are analyzed leading to the development of a design aid for this type of membranes. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Structural Integrity and Maintenance Taylor & Francis
