Title:
STRUCTURAL SYSTEM OF TORSION/TOROIDAL ELEMENTS AND METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION THEREWITH
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000058575
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
The present invention is a structural system of torsion/toroidal elements (184, figure 84) that can be connected to form structures with greater structural strength and efficiency, and which have the capacity to bear compression, tension and flexion loading by conversion of such loading to torsion loading of the connected torsion/toroidal elements. The present invention also includes method of construction using torsion/toroidal elements.
