Lecture 12 - Advanced ST Sys

This lecture discusses different types of structure systems, including form-active, vector-active, and surface-active systems. Form-active systems redirect forces through material form and include cable structures, tent structures, pneumatic structures, and arch structures. Vector-active systems redirect forces through patterns of individual members and include flat trusses, curved flat trusses, and space trusses. Surface-active systems redirect forces through material surfaces such as plate structures, folded plate structures, and shell structures. Examples of structures that employ these different system types are provided.

Different Types of Structure Systems

Form-Active Structure Systems


Redirection of external forces through
suitable material form

Vector-Active Structure Systems


Redirection of external forces through
suitable pattern of individual members

Section-Active Structure Systems


Redirection of external forces through rigid
material section

Surface-Active Structure Systems


Redirection of external forces through
material surface
Structure Systems: Form-Active

According to the magnitude of the horizontal force,


the load will be moved away from the suspension
Redirection of forces point. Through linkage with mirror-reflected system,
horizontal forces will be held in balance. The system
of stress redirection is closed within itself.

Non-rigid, flexible matter,


shaped in a certain way and
secured by fixed ends, can
support itself and span
space
They transmit loads only
through simple normal
stresses; i.e. either through
compression or through
tension.
Structure Systems: Form-Active

A suspension cable turned up forms a


funicular arch. The ideal form of an
arch for a certain load condition is the
corresponding funicular tension line
for the same loading.
Structure Systems: Form-Active

Distinction of the form-active structure systems then is that they redirect


external forces by simple normal stresses: the arch by compression, the
suspension cable by tension.
Structure Systems: Form-Active
The structure form of form-active structure
systems in the ideal case coincides precisely
with the flow of stresses. Form-active
structure systems therefore are the 'natural
