What is fabric architecture?



In architecture, fabric structures are forms of constructing fibers that provide end user a variety of aesthetic free-form building designs. Custom-made fabric structures are engineered and fabricated to meet worldwide structural, flame retardant, weather-resistant and natural force requirements.

 Architectural membranes reshape the way we think about architecture – bringing curvature, translucency, and clear spans to both external and internal spaces. The flexible nature of tensile fabric means that individual areas of any size can be fabricated, transported to site, and installed with maximum efficiency of time and cost. With design lift often exceeding 30 years, fabric buildings span generations, and are built to the same structural codes as permanent buildings.
   
The use of double curvature is a basic principle in tensile fabric architecture allowing for a stable and balanced structure. Well designed textile structures will resist any type of climate. The tensions surface, the main structural element, allows for large-span column-free designs resulting in a reduction in the quantity of structure required in a project.

Structureflex is a fabric architecture company where we are providing the best fabrication services to our clients. We are working with different indoor and outdoor shade structure projects which are used for schools, cafes, restaurants, car parking, pools and many more. We also manufacture outdoor umbrellas which are used for any outdoor event. We have designed and installed thousands of tensile fabric projects across the world using state of the art fabric and construction techniques.
 
Structureflex Project Managers are on hand to provide the relevant project advice. Each project team understands how important it is for some customers to have a critical eye cast over a design, whether for value engineering purposes, to source alternative specialist fabric or offer practical build and logistics information; they liaise with colleagues and customers alike, to ensure seamless delivery of their end product.
