Hexagonal Structures

For this experiment, I want to study the ability to transform of hexagonal grid. The next step I will try to apply its characteristic into concrete casting then evaluate the results to apply for architectural proposals.

This experiment describes methods of forming prefabricated, concrete structures using molds made from polypropylene sheets. A number of hexagonal elements are made by polyproplylene which are able to transform to different shapes of hexagon.

 

 

This produces naturally efficient structural facade or ceiling. It has significant potential for construction and engineering technology in both advanced and basic building economies. Moreover, it can be reused as many times.
