Abstract

A cable truss dome is constructed from a plurality of cables (104) under tension and compression members (106) 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 triangles are kept in tension by lower tension members attached to the lower ends of the compression members (106), which may consist either of concentric rings (116) or radial chords (152).
