摘要: An air beam made up of a cylindrical braid and lined with gas-retaining bladder is improved in its resistance to wrinkling or buckling by incorporating linear bundles fibers extending parallel the axis within weave spaced around circumference weave. Another implementation used when required strength axial implies that they will not fit braid, which case, are into external straps retention means coating applied braided fibers.
