Abstract
BeTA_S pavilion is a 2.13m (7 ft) tall free-standing installation that employs biotensegrity logics characterized by networks of interconnected components and tendons with a shape adaptive capacity. The passively stable assembly responds to human touch through vibrational motion. The pavilion introduces a novel hybrid structural system with a two-way surface derived from a catenary archway composed of 385 regular tetrahedron modules connected in series by bands of pre-stressed CNC knit textile strips. Each tetrahedron consists of bending-active GFRP rods linked by custom 3D printed polylactide connectors. The pavilion's double layered surface is hydrophobic, using yarn made from recycled plastic bottles.
