Aim/Intent: The experiment works with a composite material of glass fiber and resin, resin works as a hardener and binder to the glass fiber. The fabric is pinned to the framework and the form is derived through the gravitational force acting on it. For which the Fabric is hanging freely and acting under its own weight, supporting at its endpoints.With only gravitational force and no other load acting on it.
