Curvature: Compound Curvature:
“I prefer to stay with compound curvature because it is structurally stronger than either flat surfaces or simple cylindrical curvature or conical curvature. The new compound curvature geodesic structures will employ the tensegrity principles. The comparative strength, performance, and weight tables, by Richter, show clearly that the geodesic dome geometry is the most efficient of all compound-curvature, omnitriangulated, domical structuring systems.”
