Contents:
Two-dimensional plane tensegrity structures -- Three-dimensional spatial tensegrity structures -- Stable tensegrity structures, tensstable structures.
Summary: "Tensegrity structures are pre-stressed systems of cables and bars in which no bar is connected to the other and the structure has no continuous rigid skeleton. This introduction for engineers and architects.presents an original general method for their design. It begins with 2D structures, particularly nets, chains, rings and arches. These are then developed to original configurations of spatial tensegrity structures such as slabs, primitive spatial tensegrity arches, primitive domes; and then more elaborate spatial structures such as cylindrical shells, slim domes, vaults, and caps"-- Provided by publisher.
