Trellis Study

30 Mar

This project is based around the design of a trellis system on the edge of a solid plain. The trellis is constructed out of lightweight stress-skin panels. The stress-skin panels are constructed out of foam laminated wood. Each stress-skin panel acts as a single module and is attached at slowly increasing angles via an L-bracket and a steel dowel pin connection. The system of panels also slowly begins to bend upwards to exemplify its lightweight nature. This allows light to filter through in an increasingly dramatic fashion. The trellis is supported by a solid steel column and a cambered steel beam.
