Abstract: |
In this paper, we systematize various types of diagonal structural systems, including trusses, from the viewpoint of structure and form. First, based on the concept that a diagonal structural system consists of fundamental elements, we outline unit models as minimum elements. Then, in order to classify the patterns of constitution of the system, we present the formation flow of a three- dimensional structure and the application of a diagonal structural system to such a structure. |
