Abstract: | The concept of hybrid structural skin consists in an elastic gridshell braced with a concrete envelope. The gridshell serves as formwork for the concrete layer which is mechanically connected to the main grid, so that it assures the bracing of the grid and that its thickness is reduced to a minimum. |
