## Abstract This paper, presented in three parts, discusses a computational methodology for form‐finding of tension membrane structures (TMS), or fabric structures, used as roofing forms. The term ‘form‐finding’ describes a process of finding the shape of a TMS under its initial tension. Such a sha
