Polymer foils used in construction

SCHIEMANN, Mayr I Ludescher I Partner, Germany and K. MORITZ, seele cover GmbH, Germany [Pg.189]

Abstract This chapter first introduces the construction forms and variants of ETFE-foil structures and offers an overview of the development of ETFE-foil constructions within the field of architecture. Subsequently, the morphological structure of ETFE and the manufacturing process as well as the material behaviour and load-bearing characteristics of ETFE-foils are outlined. The final section discusses future development potentiaUties and future applicability of ETFE-foil construction methods in structural engineering. [Pg.189]

Key words ETFE, membrane, viscoelastic, cushion, polymer. [Pg.189]

With the use of ETFE-foils in the building envelope of impressive large-scale projects such as the Allianz Arena in Munich built in 2005, or the Olympic stadium and swimming pool in Beijing built for the Olympic Games in 2008, the material and construction method have once more been moved into the spotlight of the public s architectural interest. [Pg.189]
