 Abstract:

The purpose of our study is based on the structural examination of large scale cable structures built in different climatic conditions. Firstly, the study identifies construction methodology and typical problems related to cable structures. Later history, function, construction methodology, and materials have been studied in order to investigate the conception of the structural cable system to evaluate large scale structures worldwide. Historical background review has been done to chronologize the development of cable structures and the appearance of new elements and materials used in combination. The influence of the climatic conditions of specific regions on cables has further been examined in order to indicate possible solutions for the existing problems. As a result, tables on a comparative study of large scale cable structures in different regions have been presented. Khan Shatyr Entertainment Center, located in the capital of Kazakhstan, was chosen as a case study to reveal the construction methodology of large scale cable structures considering the impact of the climate. Evaluation of the case study displays that climatic impact was properly considered on the design stage, increasing structure stability. In addition, the article suggests that this type of structural system is suitable for all climatic regions.
