Thin membrane structures have been widely used in industrial building, especially for storage building roofs. Due to the thermal-optical properties of translucent thin fabric material, such as the absorption and transmittance of solar radiation, the indoor thermal environment is seriously disturbed.
The reasonable design and analysis of membrane structures need to consider material properties, structural form and loads . Unlike traditional structures, membrane structural forms follow forces (internal pressure and pre-stress), functions and industry process (cutting pattern).
Solar panels are predominately mounted on a supporting framework. The interface between the support framework and the roof covering is critical and if not taken care of correctly can cause damage to the roof membrane and potentially the structure as well. There are three main ways to mount the solar framework to the roof; 1.
In fact, novel membrane materials, controllable structures and low-energy buildings are potential sustainable aspects for membrane structures. Accurate material properties are fundamental parameters to evaluate structural safety and serviceability.
Unlike traditional structures, membrane structural forms follow forces (internal pressure and pre-stress), functions and industry process (cutting pattern). The structural forms then determine load distribution and characteristics (wind pressure coefficient and snow peak value) .
Architectural membrane (fabrics and foils) buildings have attracted considerable attention due to good material properties, adjustable building performance and reasonable load-carrying ability. Generally, overall performance of membrane structures is a multidisciplinary subject composed of material selection, performance control and sustainability.
