Remember the principles of construction can be combined. All construction methods have their advantages and disadvantages, strengths and weaknesses so be innovative, combine techniques!

This is Buckminster Fuller
Ms. Barbara Griffin . Lincoln School of Architecture . University of Lincoln
- Buckminster Fuller was born in 1927 in the US.
- He studied at Milton Academy in Massachusetts and then at Harvard University.
- He was expelled twice, first for partying, secondly for ‘irresponsibility and lack of interest

Buckminster Fuller – Dymaxion house
- The Dymaxion House was a futuristic dwelling invented by Bucky.
- The word Dymaxion was a word he
coined for his work.
- Dynamic - Maximum - Tension

Buckminster Fuller
Buckminster Fuller had an interest in a number of fields and is one of the great influencers in architecture and engineering of the 20th century - Architecture - Design - Geometry - Engineering - Science - Cartography (maps) - Education.
- His pursuit was to make the world work for 100% of humanity.

The basics in tensegrity structures
Ms. Barbara Griffin . Lincoln School of Architecture . University of Lincoln
Tensegrity structures - Used for bridges - Great for creating
clear spans - Deployable/
collapsible - Where traditionally
architectural structures work through compression, tensile structures work through tension
Ms. Barbara Griffin . Lincoln School of Architecture . University of Lincoln
In space tensegrity structures are used for antennas and telescopes

Inflatable structures
Ms. Barbara Griffin . Lincoln School of Architecture . University of Lincoln
Inflatable structures - Very lightweight - Very delicate - Very difficult to
fabricate - Sensitive to sunlight
and degrades over time
- Transparent or solid colour

Richard Horden – Ski Haus
Ski Haus was conceived while skiing late and high in the Alps The SkiHaus serves as a mobile alpine hut or a ‘hard tent’. The lightweight, all-aluminium structure weighs only 315 kg and is designed to be lifted into position by helicopter. It is well-insulated using lightweight aviation materials It has a self-sufficient energy system powered by solar and wind generators.

Richard Horden – Ice Station
Ms. Barbara Griffin . Lincoln School of Architecture . University of Lincoln
This project uses a helicopter delivery of between 0.7 to 1.3 tons for the five elements of the construction–three- point adjustable base frame, a two-level central social space, and the three double-deck sleeping and working compartments It has a tough multi-layer thermal outer jacket to prevent ice forming in the tight gaps between the separate units. They used a penguin chick as a starting point, an ideal form for thermal efficiency. The wide base provides stability in high wind, while the narrow top minimizes heat loss from the top. The station entrance on the ground is in a down-wind position, and the downward curved shape of the underside encourages wind scouring of the snow at the base which maintains a hollow around the perimeter which aids access.
