Laminar Constructions and Reciprocal Structures
Abstract Reciprocal structures are constructed by using a wide variety of patterns. These designs are a good source of inspiration when working with laminar constructions (sheets). Using the same formal schemes, laminar constructions feature better bending of their elements along the shape of the model and the application of extra pressure on the connection joints. Many of the geometric constructions made at the University of the Basque Country and presented in this paper show structural, constructive and formal improvements in many reciprocal structures assembled using sheets instead of linear elements.
