Funicular Explorations: Cardboard Box Curves Achieved through External Post-Tensioning

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Catherine Elvire L. De Wolf

Structural designers often face the challenge of developing forms optimal for a broad range of requirements, but inefficient in terms of structural behavior. In these cases, bending moments often occur under normal loading, resulting in oversized, inelegan ...
