Cast-in-Place Funicular Polyhedral Concrete Structure
This research explores the structural performance of a funicular polyhedral geometry using experimental testing. The geometry of the physical prototype for the presented study is designed using 3DGS method.
Hedracrete
Hedracrete can be considered a proof of concept for 3D Graphic Statics. By changing the boundary conditions in 3DGS model, a designer can explicitly change the internal forces in the structure from compression-only forces to a system with both compressive and tensile forces.
Triskeles Bridge
Triskeles bridge is a conceptual design of a funicular spatial bridge that spans over three support locations. The structural form of this bridge is derived using 3D graphic statics method using reciprocal polyhedral diagrams.
