SPIGOT connection Used for the connection of 2 circular steel tubes to achieve the desired length, which is 111 feet. PIN JOINT Attach column (masts) to base plate through welding. Telescopic strut connection Steel plate is welded and connected to a steel structure with a smaller diameter. welded JOINT with cleats PIN JOINT Bale ring MEMBRANE PLATE elevATION SCALE 1: 500 BALE RING PTFE membrane is clamped onto the bale ring to form conical shaped structures. It is found on the top and bottom of the A-frame columns alternatively to achieve its form. Tensioning Angle Fabric Clamp Plate Clamp Plate all thread Rod All thread Rod, bolts and nuts Angle Receiving Plate with Spacer Plates to allow for overflow Scupper Plate assembly PTFE membrane Catenary Cable membrane plate Clamps onto the fabric’s corner to pull the fabric tightly, holds the ends of the catenary cables that run in the fabric edge pockets. ktop CABLE ANCHORING Steel cables are anchored to the steel cleats which are welded onto the base plate. The base plate is then secured onto the concrete foundation with bolts and nuts. Steel cable Hinge joint Base plate Bolted joint Welded joint Steel plate Circular Hollow Column Galvanized steel structure Conical steel structure Pin Joint Base plate Membrane plate Bolted connection to the steel cable Tension cables to hold the A-frame column CONCRETE POSTS PLAn SCALE 1: 1500 References: ASU SkySong Innovation Center - Scottsdale, AZ.
