ABSTRACT:
A reticular structure for shelters having square or rectangular plan, realized by arranging a plurality of triangular modular frames, each of them comprising a polygonal mesh grid, defined by rigid struts of equal length. Each triangular modular frame is able to be inscribed in a portion of a right cylindrical surface, while the single meshes have the oblique struts inscribed in crossed geodetic lines following a cylindric helix with constant pitch.
