Abstract:

A pair of tensegrity skeletons, supporting a membrane roof, has been constructed at Chiba, Japan in 2001. Since their construction, the strain level of all struts and tendons of the skeletons have been continuously monitored and recorded. In this paper the long-term observation data of one of the tensegrity skeletons is reported and briefly discussed.
