The design corresponds to a roof for a multifunctional sport court with a disposable space area of 46 x 24 sqm. We decided to cover this area with a textile fabric geometrically defined by four hypar surfaces squared into a steel structure. The particular of this design is that the four supports are placed in the middle of the edges and not in the corners as is habitual. Then the structure is a four wing roof with 23 m of cantilever in the larger direction and 12 m in the shorter. We introduce also precedents of this solution from other applications.
