ABSTRACT
The preliminary simulation of models was also conducted by analysis methods and the performance evaluations proposed for membrane and support system.
The membrane evaluation was based on allowable stresses, applying real load and having pre-tension values recommended by experience (Koenen 2009). It was also considered the range in which the membrane material can behave fairly linear (Koch 2004). The influence of magnitude and duration of long-term and short-term loads were verified.
