The model shows a frame in which a hinged tension rod only absorbs and transmits axial tensile forces. The arrangement enables precise force transfer without compressive components. This innovative construction achieves efficient load guidance that is specifically designed for tensile stresses. The accompanying image illustrates the schematic structure of the frame and the tension rod in detail.
