Abstract

A negative answer to the earlier placed question about the existence of a restoring self-stress in the linear space of self-stresses of a fastened framework is obtained. Namely an example of a plane construction reconstructible from its linear space of self-stresses but not reconstructible from any individual self-stress will be described.
