PD CEN/TS 19102:2023 PDF

1   Scope

1.1   Scope of CEN/TS 19102 (1) This document applies to the design of buildings and structural works, made of structural membrane material. It provides guidance for the design of tensioned membrane structures, either mechanically or pneumatically tensioned at a defined prestress level.

NOTE 1 Membrane materials comprise structural fabrics , coated structural fabrics and foils .

NOTE 2 For elements of tensile surface structures not governed by this Technical Specification (for example made of steel, aluminium, wood or other structural materials), see relevant Eurocode parts.

(2) This document is concerned with the requirements for resistance, serviceability and durability of tensioned membrane structures, as given in EN 1990.

NOTE 1 The safety criteria follow EN 1990 and will consider specific limit states for tensioned membrane structures.

NOTE 2 Specific requirements concerning seismic design are not co...
