The design proposal for the Tallwood Design Institute Exhibit Pavilion, Triannasaurus Rex, is a heavy timber triangular grid containing a waterproof fabric. The fabric would have various colors that are elevated by six tapered tree-like columns. The aim of the pavilion is to play with light filtration through multi-colored fabrics and the open triangulation formed by the angular roof. The entire project was built in grasshopper in order to be parametric. All of the structural elements were also tested in grasshopper.
Group project consisting of myself, Jasmine Martinez and Walker Maddalozzo.
The maximum displacement at any point was around .03”, this is with 2 kips (2000 lbs) horizontal loads and self weight.
More Displacement would occur areas that are daker
The Darker area are the areas where more utilization is being used.
