What are the structural benefits of a hyperbolic parabooid roof?

[kaleidoscope]

How do you explain the structural benefits of a hyperbolic paraboloid roof? I think the 2 catenaries help distribute the weight better, but not I'm not sure if there are additional properties for this design. Thanks for your help!

Since you don't mention any benefits to be explained, is this coursework?

Perhaps written, add pictures if I'm feeling frisky. Could be verbally too, depending on the situation.
