A finfish aquaculture containment pen having a plurality of panels that when joined together form the majority of the exterior surface of the containment pen. The panels each comprise tension-bearing mesh material forming the exterior surface of the containment pen, a plurality of compression-bearing struts extending along the boundaries between panels, wherein the mesh material is attached to the struts along the lengths of the struts, and a plurality of hubs at which a plurality of struts and the corners of a plurality of panels abut each other. The panels can form a polyhedral structure. The mesh can comprise coated wire mesh. The struts can be curved members with convex curvature.

La présente invention a trait à un enclos de confinement aquacole de poissons comportant une pluralité de panneaux qui lorsqu'ils sont assemblés forment la majeure partie de la surface extérieure de l'enclos de confinement. Les panneaux comportent un matériau en mailles de tension formant la surface extérieure de l'enclos de confinement, une pluralité d'entretoises de compression s'étendant le long des limites entre panneaux, ledit matériau en mailles étant fixé aux entretoises selon la direction longitudinale des entretoises, et une pluralité de noeuds au niveau desquels une pluralité d'entretoises et les coins de la pluralité de panneaux se rencontrent. Les panneaux peuvent former une structure polyèdre. Le matériau en mailles peut comporter un treillis métallique revêtu. Les entretoises peuvent être des éléments incurvés avec une courbure convexe.
