QuaDror, A New Structural System at Design Indaba 2011
Thursday, 24 February 2011
Dror Benshetrit has introduced QuaDror at Design Indaba, a new space truss geometry that can adapt to various conditions and configurations. It presents structural efficiency and several design initiatives, from product design to architectural projects.
When investigating the QuaDror geometry as a structural support system for building, the studio realized that it could potentially bring a groundbreaking solution to the global issue of habitat. Due to its collapsibility and adaptability, the QuaDror system allows to ship 1750 QuaDror kits to build 1750 QuaDror relief houses in just one 40 foot container.
