Using Models to Design Suspension Structures

Zdenko Jecić

Abstract

Models are used in the initial stage of formfinding for suspension structures. This paper shows how the topometric procedure can be used to survey the shape of the model. It also investigates how the data obtained can be used in later stages of the designing process and shows possibilities for integrating various stages.

Keywords
