Space Grid Structures

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

A space frame is a three-dimensional framework for enclosing spaces in
which all members are interconnected and act as a single entity. A
benefit of this type of structure is that very large spaces can be
covered, uninterrupted by support from the ground.
John Chilton's book provides an up-to-date assessment of the use of
space grid structures in buildings by reviewing methods of
construction, various systems available and detailed studies of the use
of space grids in modern buildings. The technical level is aimed at
professional and student architects and engineers worldwide and it also
serves as a useful construction manual.
