  2. Saddle roof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddle_roof

    A saddle roof is a roof form which follows a convex curve about one axis and a concave curve about the other. The hyperbolic paraboloid form has been used for roofs at various times since it is easily constructed from straight sections of lumber, steel, or other conventional materials. [1] The term is used because the form resembles the shape ...

    Concrete shell structures, often cast as a monolithic dome or stressed ribbon bridge or saddle roof; Lattice shell structures, also called gridshell structures, often in the form of a geodesic dome or a hyperboloid structure; Membrane structures, which include fabric structures and other tensile structures, cable domes, and pneumatic structures.

  7. Curved structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_structures

    Differently from the post and lintel construction, which capacity depends on the resistance of the single members, curved structures can rely on their shape too. However, single curvature structures (that is, simple vaults) show less capacity than double curvature ones (e.g., domes, domical and cloister and saddle).
