| Abstract: |
A large span roof made of cable stayed arches is presented. If compared to a traditional tied arch, the pre-tensioned cable stayed arch presents: (a) a strong reduction of the bending moments; (b) a general increase of the stiffness; (c) a strong increase of the limit multiplier associated with the eulerian critical load. |
