Abstract:

Bending-active structures

Bending-active structures are curved beam or surface structures that base their geometry and structural integrety on the elastic deformation of their initially straight or planar elements. In these lightweight structures bending is not avoided but instrumentalized to create complex curved geometries on the basis of standard semi-finished building products. After a general introduction of material and mechanical basics this paper discusses the behavior of bending-active structures through three case study projects.
