Forum by the Sea, Cable Roof

The 36 meter diameter circular glass roof over the central area of this large shopping center in Cancun, Mexico, is supported by a series of bowstring trusses.

TriPyramid worked with the developer and structural engineer to design the roof structure, which was constrained to work with the already-existing building structure. TriPyramid designed, tested, and supplied the struts with integral cable clamps, and the 30 mm cables that make up the bowstring trusses.
