What is the strongest structure?

It depends on the kinds of stresses the structure is expected to resist. To resist cantilever stresses (bending - a combination of compression, tension, and sheer), the octet-truss is the strongest possible structure. To resist only tension a straight line, such as a cable, is the optimum structural geometry; and to resist only compression a lorimerlite framework is the strongest structural geometry.

Why is a lorimerlite structure the strongest under compression?

In architecture and engineering a lorimerlite structure is a lightweight support framework made up entirely of tetrahedral joints (four beams meeting at 109.5 degree angles). Lorimerlite structures are used to withstand compressive loads with the least amount of structural material. This is achieved through the inherent geometry of the support system; for a predefined volume of space to fill and predefined number of joints in the structure, each beam finds the shortest unbraced path through space (in the same way as a hexagonal grid in two dimensions). The smaller the length of individual beams the greater the resistance to axial compression, reducing the danger of lateral buckling and thus enhancing the compressive strength of the entire structure. Loads are distributed at each joint evenly with every beam meeting at 109.5 degree angles.


Can metals withstand low temperatures?

Lowering the temperature of a material can change it's molecular structure but it will still basically be the same material because the elements are still there.

What is the ability of a material to withstand compression called?

I believe that it would be density. The more dense a sample is the more compact the molecules are. The description of compression is to reduce by volume, so the ability to withstand compression would be the lack of room to do the compression. Can anyone add to this?
