ABSTRACT:
A modular structural system utilizes a limited inventory of framework elements which in combination with a limited number of interstitial exterior and interior panels can be utilized to erect a variety of integral structures in which the framework elements bear substantially all loads. The same framework elements can be combined to form planar trusses and spans, domical space enclosing structures with integral foundations, and complex multi-level high rise structures. Polyhedral frameworks are assembled into arrays of interlinked triangulated segments for optimum stability.
