Systems

Lattice Grid Systems

These type of spatial structures are formed by the assembly of a number of standard trusses (which behave as one-way systems). These systems do not behave as three dimensional spatial structures and as a result are not as rigid. However, they are usually less costly to build. A crane is generally needed for the construction of these systems.
