<p>A cable truss dome which is not triangulated is constructed from a plurality of cables under tension and compression members arranged in triangles having non-common sides. The cable truss dome is adapted for spanning large areas where the cables form a low shallow arch which supports a flexible membrane as a covering. The non-common vertex of the formed triangles are connected to similarly placed vertical sides of other triangles through continuous nested tension rings.</p> |
