The word tensegrity results from the contraction of tensional and
integrity, a word created by Richard Buckminster Fuller. He went on
to describe tensegrity structures as islands of compression in an
ocean of tension, and Rene Motro has developed a comprehensive
definition which is systems in a stable self equilibriated system
comprising a discontinuous set of compressed components inside a
continuum of tensioned components .
This publication represents the life work of a leading exponent of
a revolutionary and exciting method of structural design.
