How Long Can a Tensile Membrane Structure Last ?
A lifespan of a tensile membrane structure is dependent on the budget of the project. The budget determines what design and materials are needed for the construction of the tensile membrane structure. For instance on fabric roof systems, there are several fabric types with corresponding lifespan. Silicon coated glass fibre fabrics and ETFE, PTFE fabrics, […]
Are Tensile Membrane Structures Expensive?
The answer is no. In fact, tensile membrane structures is the best architectural solution ever discovered nowadays. It is the future of architectural structures. Compared to common roof systems such as glass, tensile architectural structures can save you half the material cost together with the fabrication of for the framework and construction time cost. Tensile […]
What is ETFE Roof?
TE Membrane is one of the leading and world-class tensile membrane structure companies, delivering ETFE roofing to a higher level for architectural solution in the field of tensile fabric. We have the best and well-versed designers, architects and structural engineers who have accomplished and completed numbers of tensile fabric structures both local and international. ETFE […]
Why fabric structure is chosen for architectural solution?
Every tensile structure requires the right solution to meet every aspect of its architectural element such as design and build, framework, durability and reliability. As the trend of structural architecture progresses and the quest to find the most unique, minimalistic and remarkable structural designs continues, various architectural solutions arise. One of the most fascinating developments […]
Finite Element Software in the Fabric Structure Design
TE Membrane uses a variety of the most advanced finite element analysis software and programs. Using finite element software for fabric design structure, simulations are done and helps to evaluate a material or a design’s reaction to outside factors. The goal of every tensile engineering study and finite element analysis is to have the tensile […]
Finite Element Analysis for Tensile Fabric Structure
Seeing a tensile fabric structure design for the first time is a bliss in the eye. However, looking at it in the engineering point of view, the design itself may not be sufficient to build a quality and reliable fabric structure without undergoing a series of details engineering analysis. The shape and form of the […]
