A hybrid string structure is a structure that combines a frame with bending rigidity and strings (non-compression-resistant straight members). This structure is characterized by the ability to control deformation and stress by intentionally introducing tension into the cables. For this reason, when designing a hybrid string structure, it is important to determine the appropriate string arrangement and initial tension. In recent years, examples of hybrid string structures with various shapes have been seen. Taking these circumstances into consideration, this paper aims to establish an optimization method for hybrid string structures, and focuses on a plate string structure to examine a method for optimization of topology and tensile force.
