Understanding the Behavior of Long-Span Roof Structures: Beams vs. Cables

Long-span roof structures enable large, unobstructed spaces in buildings like sports arenas and airports. Their behavior can be beam-like, relying on bending resistance, or cable-like, leveraging tensile forces. Some roofs combine both, forming hybrid structures. These designs require advanced engineering, considering dynamic loads and stiffness to ensure stability and efficiency.
