Abstract
The present invention proposes a novel construction system consisting of the attachment of modified hyperboloid shaped-structural elements called “laminate cells” which, when working together, create a structural system with integrated over having the capacity of absorbing and transmitting in all directions and orientations.
Claims10
A construction system forming a covered structure, the construction system comprising:
- at least two laminate cells attached together to absorb and transmit stresses in a plurality of directions and orientations, wherein each of the laminate cells comprises:
- a hollow main body having top edges defined by a first set of outer flanges at a top end, bottom edges defined by a second set of outer flanges at a bottom end, and a substantially hyperboloid shaped thin wall that extends between the top edges and the bottom edges, wherein at least one of the top edges and at least one of the bottom edges connect to respective top and bottom edges of another of the laminate cells to enable the laminate cells to absorb and transmit stresses in the plurality of directions and orientations.
