The project was to create a 1:5 scale model of a structural bay that could be used to span a 15-metre space. Our group chose to use this project to investigate the characteristics of tensegrity structures. We created a tensegrity dome which was held above the ground by three support points. Two of the supports were simple tensegrity columns. We turned one of the trees on the campus into a tensegrity structure to hold the third point of the dome.
