Telescoping strut members and tendons for constructing tensile integrity structures

摘要

A construction kit consisting of telescoping strut members and pre- measured elastic or inelastic tendons, for the purpose of constructing tensile-integrity structures. The invention is made of reusable elements. By introducing struts which can be adjusted to various lengths the invention circumvents the necessity of measuring, cutting and tying different lengths of tendons for different structures and considerably simplifies the construction process.
