4. Suspended structures

   • This type of structures uses cables, called suspenders which the structure hangs from. When they can be adjusted, they are called tension members

5. Reinforced concrete structures

   • Concrete led to major advances in construction because it could be made into any shape

6. Laminated structures

   • These are formed by laminates of metal, plastic or composite material like reinforced concrete

7. Pneumatic stryctures

   • Are light and easy to transport set up and dismantle
