ABSTRACT:
The disclosed deployable lattice column includes a plurality of longeron elements connected together and reinforced by lateral elements including both diagonal members and battens. The diagonal members are formed of rigid elements thereby maintaining the stiffness of the lattice column when deployed, even when torsional loads are applied to the column.
