Hyperboloid structures are architectural structures designed using a hyperboloid in one sheet. Often these are tall structures such as towers where the hyperboloid geometry's structural strength is used to support an object high off the ground, but hyperboloid geometry is also often used for decorative effect as well as structural economy. The first hyperboloid structures were built by Russian engineer Vladimir Shukhov in 1896.

Гиперболоидные конструкции - это архитектурные конструкции, спроектированные с использованием гиперболоида. Часто это высокие конструкции, такие как башни, где структурная прочность геометрии гиперболоида используется для поддержки объекта, также такая геометрия  часто используется для декоративного украшения или для экономии конструкции. Первое гиперболоидное сооружения построил русский инженер Владимир Шухов в 1896 году.
