| Abstract: | Spatial structures in architecture are popular. The origin of popularity of space frames, dome structures was Surrey. Tensile structures were developed in Stuttgart. Free Form Structures often are more sculptural than structural. Tensegrity structures were the most complicated structures. In all hubris, very complicated tensegrity projects were designed and proposed, almost impossible to build. Yet structural design of more simple tensegrity systems ended in stabilizing systems in Delft for frameless glass facades and roofs with extreme visual super-slender appearance. To realize innovative spatial structures a design and build approach is absolutely an advantage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
