Abstract

The development of contemporary spatial structures for long-span roofs in China was initiated in the 1950s. Space trusses, reticulated shells and cable suspended structures have been developing rapidly since 1980s. Recently there has been a growing interest in tensile membrane structures. Comprehensive theoretical study has been carried out parallel to the engineering application, which provided necessary theoretical support to the development of different types of spatial structures.
