Abstract

This article shows how composite materials might be an original and profitable solution for lightweight structures called gridshells. In this paper the principal characteristics of gridshells are recalled first and a demonstration that glass fibres reinforced polymers (GFRP) are suitable for these structures is shown. The purpose of the proposed article focuses on the last realization in France, a temporary church in Creteil near Paris, and on some other developments, including a mixed solution with concrete for roofing the gridshell.
