This paper provides a detailed overview of the design and construction of a series of temporary pavilions based on the Tensairity® principle. The pavilions are currently used in the Superbike racing category (Ducati Superbike Team), for the Audi tron Sailing Series, the ISAF Sailing World Cup and for other temporary events (3KIT pavilion). The paper describes the Tensairity® principle, the architectural and structural design of the pavilions, the manufacturing of the components and the assembly of the Tensairity® roofs.
