Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and arranged in …

Tensegrity, a portmanteau of “tensional integrity,” describes a structural principle where stability arises from the careful interplay of tension and compression.

Tensegrity is a structural principle that combines compression elements with tension elements to produce a stable, rigid form. The name tensegrity was coined in the mid-twentieth century and is a …

Sep 30, 2025 · Tensegrity, a portmanteau of “tensional integrity,” refers to a structural design principle that employs a unique combination of tensile (pulling) and compressive (pushing) elements to create …

Apr 28, 2022 · There is a new internet trend called “tensegrity” – an amalgamation of the words tension and integrity. It is basically a trend of videos showing how objects appear to float above a structure …

Aug 19, 2025 · Tensegrity, also referred to as tensional integrity or floating compression, is a unique structural principle that has gained significant attention in civil and architectural engineering. It …

What are Tensegrity Structures? At its core, a tensegrity structure is a system where continuous tension cables hold discontinuous compression bars in perfect balance.

In this chapter, the fundamental notions about tensegrity systems are presented, together with the basic calculation methods. After giving a general introduction to the main tensegrity concepts, we dive into …
