ABSTRACT:
A support structure for a space frame system of the type wherein an upper chord frame and a lower chord frame structure are formed of a plurality of strut members connected to each other and held together by a plurality of like connecting fixtures. A support column is included for connection to the connecting fixtures by one or more intermediate beams carried at the top of the support column. The structure is designed to support multiple deck space frames and space frames covering multiple modules in such manner as to distribute the load and stress characteristics of the space frames dependently one of the other through the column. Different embodiments include diagonal column arm supports and systems in which there are included either one-way or two-way support beams interconnected with the chord frames of two or more of the space frames. The present disclosure also illustrates arrangements whereby the column arm is itself connected by a second vertically spaced cross arm of similar load bearing characteristics and having similar interconnections with the multiple space frame elements to increase the load carrying and shearing capacity of the space frames.
