Prototype Timber Gridshell
This is the first gridshell I made. It was created as part of my undergraduate thesis and designed to increase the modularity of a timber gridshell using steam curved lattices and nail plates. The purpose is to test a method of jointing the lattices to the required span and confirming quicker onsite assembly.
The benefits of building using Timber Gridshell Technology:
Reduced weight & an increase in strength.
Significant reduction of material when compared to standard roofs
