Tensegrity structures, due to their high stiffness and lightness, have been interesting for designers and architects for decades. The key stage of each design is the selection of the optimal structural system, the task of which is to ensure the load-bearing capacity and meet the visual expectations of modern museums and traditional exhibitions. The article analyzes the use of the tensegrity structure as display pedestals in museums due to its stability and load-bearing capacity. Numerical calculations of the analyzed structural systems of museum pedestals were performed using the finite element method in RFEM. After the analysis, it can be concluded that a properly selected tensegrity structure for the construction of a museum pedestal is an interesting solution worth considering when designing.
