Structures that are constructed by accumulating material, without leaving any gaps between them
Massive structures and lintels
20
Formed by arches and xxxxxx using stones that are cut in such a way that the only stress they support is compression
Vaulted structures
20
These structures are made from bars, normally metal or wooden, and are ideal for building bridges.
Triangular structures
20
These structures use cables, which the structure hangs from.
Suspended structures
20
These structures are formed by laminates of metal, plastic, or composite material like reinforced concrete
Laminated structures
20
These structures are light and easy to transport and dismantle.
Pneumatic structures
20
These are 3 dimensional structures of bars, which combine the properties of vaults with triangulated structures to create curved shapes and cover large spaces
