ARCHITEKTONISCHE TEXTILE FLÄCHENGEBILDE

摘要

An architectural fabric is claimed where the tension members are strips. These strips comprise a tension member and a polymer matrix. The matrix is preferably of the thermoplastic type and is preferably chemically attached to the polymer used for the membrane. However, mechanical fastening of the strip to the membrane or a combination of chemical and mechanical fastening is not excluded. The advantages are that such a strip is better weather resistant, offers better strength to weight ratios and gives a larger contact surface to the membrane.
