- | -Air Cushions, The Urban Search and Rescue team uses these for lifting immensely heavy objects. When deflated, the bags can be inserted under objects, even when there is very little room available. Once inserted, the bag is filled with air via the attached connection and hose which are clearly visible in the photos above. As the bag fills it lifts the load on top of it. | ||

- | Timeframe: 2004-2005\\ | + | Airlight is among specialized in lightweight and large span structures: Tensairity. |
+ | What is the difference between Tensairity and existing pneumatic structures? | ||
+ | The innovative Tensairity-concept and the fact that air pressure is totally independent of the span and slenderness of the constituting elements. In other words: Tensairity allows the construction of very light roof structures with extremely long span. The load bearing capacity of Tensairity is so high that with a pressure of 200 mbar it is already possible to build temporary bridges even suitable for heavy transports. Compared with traditional airbeams, Tensairity needs just 1% of air pressure. With such low pressure, air losses are easily compensated. | ||
+ | Many other fields of application are possible: floating structures, sport equipment, airships and even aerospace applications.\\ | ||
