     Detector mechanics can play a significant role in a detector's 
performance, improvements typically require in-depth study of total 
mass, novel ways to reduce the total mass, as well as more integrated 
design concepts to save on material budgets and optimize performance. 
Particle detectors at future colliders rely on ever more precise charged 
particle tracking devices, which are supported by structures 
manufactured from composite materials. This article lays out engineering 
techniques able to solve challenges related to the design and 
manufacturing of future support structures. Examples of current efforts 
at Purdue University related to the high-luminosity upgrade of the CMS 
detector are provided to demonstrate the prospects of suggested 
approaches for detectors at new colliders: a future circular collider or 
a muon collider. Detectors at electron-positron machines have 
significantly smaller material budgets and require targeted concepts.
