Lecture
This lecture covers the design and analysis of cable networks in structural engineering, focusing on cable carriers, pre-tension cables, edge cables, and direct and indirect supports. It also explores the use of membranes in architectural structures, with examples like the Munich Olympic Ice Rink and the Tokyo National Stadium. The instructor discusses the principles of equilibrium, forces, deformations, and rigidity in cable structures, emphasizing the importance of form and stiffness in design.
