Nodes
KK-Ball Node System
- load applied to the nodes
- double- or multilayer
- each node has up to 18 threaded holes as pin-joint connections
- gives greatest freedom in design
NK-Bowl Node System
- double-layer structure
- pin-jointed connection to the nodes
- lower chord as ball node system
- plane or vurved surfaces
- average to wide-span structure
ZK-Cylinder Node System
- single-layer structure in triangular and/or trapezoidal surface geometry
- bend resistant connection
- i.g. for curved surfaces of average span structures
- small to middle spans
- cladding elements fixed directly on members
TK-Disc Node System
- single-layer system in triangular surface geometry
- pin-jointed connection to the nodes
- curved surfaces of small to average span structures
BK-Block Node System
- single- or multi-layer structure
- single bolted connections
- sharp changes in inclination of roof i.e. shed
Double-Node
- single layer structures, with high, slender sections
- bending-stiff, pin-jointed connections
- plan and vurved free-formed grid-shells with targe warpage
Star-Node
- Single-layer grid shell structures, with high, slender sections.
- Possibility of direct loading of the members without a secondary structure.
-
Semi-rigid, pre-stressed bolted connections invisible inside the sections.
- Plane and curved free-formed grid-shells.
