> Inflatable structures are made from materials that handle tensile loads well (the hoop stress from pressurization in particular). And conveniently, hoop stress due to pressure in a cylinder is twice the axial stress due to pressure, so you're free to add quite a bit of axial stress due to the mass of all the items in your artificial gravity environment!
