| Summary: | The paper is focused on the static analysis of the cone, which is one of the basic shapes used for membrane structures. These structures are specific by their ability to transmit only tensile forces. Pressure forces in the membrane construction may cause unwanted wrinkling of the used textile materials. When designing membranes, one of the variable parameters can be the height of cone and the radius of the circular profile at the top of the cone, which affects the resulting stress and internal forces. This paper aims to analyze the reliability of the cone in terms of the extreme stress and internal forces while maintaining the same ground plan.
