The Experimental Observation of the Prestress Forces in the Structural Elements of a Tension Fabric Structure

Abstract:

The periodic experimental observation of the prestress forces in some selected structural elements of the tension fabric structure is mentioned in this paper. The described experiment was focused to the tension fabric roof which covers the tram stop K Barrandovu in Prague. So far the observation was performed three times and it was every time aimed on three types of basic structural elements support cables anchored to the ground, edge cables placed in a fabric pocket and fabric membranes. The used non-destructive experimental procedures are based on the geometrical nonlinearity and the frequency method, the applied measurement system was developed by authors. The dependence of cable forces on temperature changes can be found out from the obtained results.
