Application of construction membranes in current buildings
The article discusses structural membranes as modern building materials used to form the facades of buildings and structures. Paper give their detailed characteristics, physico-chemical properties and conditions of use. Two types of composite material from which the membranes are made are described: textiles and foil, their components, individual characteristics, method of manufacture. Further examples of specific modern buildings facades analyzed performance properties of membranes isolated main advantages and disadvantages of this technology. In conclusion, the authors, on the basis of the research done, conclude about the advantages of using this material in the construction industry, as well as express their assumption about the development and new possibilities of its practical application.
