MOOM TENSEGRITIC MEMBRANCE STRUCTURE
KAZUHIRO KOJIMA LABORATORY, TOKYO UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE+JUN SATO STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS+TAIYO KOGYO
- Outline
- This pavilion was created with a grant from the Nommura Foundation for the Promotion of Membrane Structure Technology in search of new possibilities for membrane structures. The tent membrane is Taiyo Kogyo's Shadeasur. The membrane acts as a tensile material, creating unevenness, so that the aluminum pipes, which are compressive materials, do not touch each other and form a tensegrity structure.
