This thesis deals with the techniques used in the numerical analysis of cable roof structures. These structures are usually very light and flexible and require analysis methods, which take their non-linear behaviour into account.
An extensive literature survey, concerned with both practical and theoretical aspects of cable roofs, is presented. Some aspects included are: structural systems, [...]
