PROTOTYPE

RELATION OF PROJECT

Relation to other atom(s):

Atom 8 is creating a structure that can incorporate many different activities but changes its appearences due to parameters related to (eg) sunlight, noise and user density. This could become an extension of the Spacebook structure system.


Relation to other project(s):

Interactive border is as a possible solution for Spacebook furniture

Flexscape is a possible system for a user adaptable floor

Relation to other developments on the site:

- Some of the strips will serve as a (covered) walkway for connecting the BK city to the Science Centre and the Botanical Gardens.


VALIDATORS

Technical experts

Stef of Van Kleef Tyrecentre Delft

Pirelli Center Netherlands

Apollo Vredestein B.V.


1:1 MODEL PROPOSAL

For the 1:1 model a small portion of the structure will be build: a fragment of the strip that is anchored to the ground.

- the inflatable units are connected to the ground with hinge elements which eliminate horizontal forces in the structure and at the same time provide the rotation freedom for the creation of the arch

- the pressure installation is located underneath the floor surface

- the air is sucked into the system via a grid in the pavement

- through the wall air tubes will lead to the inflatable units
