Fabric structures are considered a sub-category of tensile structure.

The tensile structure was difficult to analyze and required several tests at the University of Toronto.

"It's the beginning of scaffold-like, high-tech, tensile structures," he said.

In architecture there has been much interest in tensile structures, which are closely related to minimal surfaces.

This is not the case for tensile structures such as tension fabric structures.

They are nimble, tensile little structures, very much in the constructivist spirit.

Since 1959, most ideas for space elevators have focused on purely tensile structures, with the weight of the system held up from above.

A tensile structure is a construction of elements carrying only tension and no compression or bending.

True ruled surfaces are rarely found in tensile structures.

This tensile structure was supplied and installed by Australian company.
