The slab between columns must be designed as a beam and it may be convenient to extend the main roof slab as a cantilever canopy.
In this way the structural system is capable of carrying loads without the need for additional supporting beams along mutual edges.
Definition folded plates are assemblies of flat plates rigidly connected together along their edges in such a way that the structural system capable of carrying loads without the need for additional supporting beams along mutual edges.
They can be best described as assemblies that consist of flat slabs or plates that are inclined in different directions and are joined along their edges at the top.
