By: Ronstan Tensile Architecture Ronstan Tensile Architecture possesses a technical understanding of individual tensile components that is unrivaled by its competitors. Ronstan’s expertise is the result of decades of experience supplying tensile rods and cables and contracting for a variety of tensile applications, including cable nets, glazed and green facades, balustrades and railings, bridges, catenary lighting, security and fall protection, signage and decoration, structural bracing, tensioned fabric architecture, landscaping applications and zoological enclosures. Ronstan assembles an experienced, integrated team to provide comprehensive services for small to midsize projects incorporating principles of tensile architecture. Ronstan’s design engineers customize solutions to meet the architectural vision of each project, while its project management team ensures the proper coordination of tensile requirements. Combining its specialty contracting services, technical expertise and bold imagination, Ronstan has contributed to some of the world’s most intriguing examples of tensile architecture. “Ronstan offers the full range of consulting services to provide a tailored solution for each tensile architecture installation,” Working with a building project’s team throughout the design-build process, Ronstan Tensile Architecture delivers the utmost in quality, safety and efficiency through its end-to-end design, engineering and contracting services, which include: • Design Support Ronstan’s design support services draw on decades of experience, combined with the latest technology and techniques, to interpret and realize a concept for tension structures. • Structural Analysis A team of consultants provides detailed analysis and modeling of how Ronstan’s systems will behave and interact within any tensile architecture installation. • Materials Selection Ronstan consults with the building team on how to most precisely customize a system from a wide range of products, materials and finishes. • Custom Fabrication Whether a project requires a custom-made terminal or a continuing line, Ronstan can custom design and fabricate the right hardware for any job. • Cost Estimation, Planning and Scheduling Ronstan provides accurate and transparent quotations for tensile architecture projects as well as detailed estimates for cost planning requirements. • Method Statements Ronstan develops accurate method statements for any tension structure to ensure that the installations will perform to expectation, with the most efficient and timely assembly. • Management and Coordination Ronstan coordinates, manages and oversees the construction of its tension systems on site and consolidates various components from different suppliers for a seamless installation. Ronstan’s intimate knowledge of tensile components ensures that all factors of the design and building process are considered, such as load requirements, corrosion protection mechanisms and cable construction. Additionally, Ronstan understands how cables and rods can be combined in uniquely aesthetic designs that provide meaningful utility and contribute to sustainable design. The simple shape and form that Ronstan can achieve with tensile structures masks their true complexity and creates mystique. “The highly-technical nature of tensile architecture can be intimidating without the assistance of an end-to-end specialty contractor,” Headquartered in Melbourne, Ronstan has contributed to many noteworthy installations throughout Australasia, the nerve center of tensile architecture. Ronstan was first incorporated in the early 1950s in a small factory in Melbourne, manufacturing hardware for the marine industry. The new category of tensile architecture adopted Ronstan structural rods and cables, fasteners, terminals and fittings to hold materials like fabric membrane, glass, metal and wood in place under tension, as the name tensile architecture implies. Since then, Ronstan has worked closely with the A/E community, expanding the influence of tensile architecture and accumulating a wealth of knowledge in the design, engineering and execution of the tensile structures in which their hardware products play such a critical role.
