Deployable structures have been developed for many different applications from space to mechanical and civil engineering. In the paper the general concepts of deployable structures, combining static and kinematic behaviour are presented first, also discussing their relationships with adaptive and variable geometry structures. Reported applications to civil engineering and architecture are then reviewed and categorized. The characteristics of the following systems are summarized: 1. Pneumatic Structures. 2. Tensegrity Structures. 3. Scissor-like Structures. 4. Rigid Foldable Origami. 5. Mutually Supported Structures. The problems of form finding, direct and inverse kinematics, actuation and self-deployability for some of the most interesting among the above structural types are then discussed in the paper. Some examples involving rigid foldable origami and mutually supported structures are finally presented.
