Developing the two patterns needed for a Lamella Zollinger roof.
Developing the two patterns needed for a Lamella Zollinger roof.
(OP)
Evening folks.
I recently saw a post featuring a Lamella Zollinger rhomboid pattern reciprocal roof structure and I'm intrigued.. I'm looking for a calculator, or a long hand method (it's been years since Ive used algebra) to develop the two patterns required to build one. I tried messing around with this software, but it's french. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsPME1vgV0IRgfEVlyDF57O2Pw_dzA...
There's more pro's than con's with these structures imo, and does anyone have any suggestions on how to figure out the two structural shapes, short of hiring a engineer proficient with Rhinoceros CAD 3D?
Yes, I tried to contact rural sw Alabama auburn studio because their Hale county animal shelter is the shape and diameter I want.
My site is in Iowa County Iowa where there are no codes or inspections. But I don't need high winds, which these structures are known to be susceptible to due to lift, or snow loads causing any failures.
Thanks
