What else can I help you with?
In architecture what does form refer to?
The shape of a structure.
How old is landscape architecture?
As an art form, landscape architecture can be traced back to the ancient world.
What is the comparative and superlative form of important?
More important is the comparative form, and most important is the superlative form.
Is architecture enjoyable?
Architecture is enjoyable because it is empirical then rational then empirical. It is sensory input then analysis then rational ideas then analysis then sensory output. It is the philosophy of humanity. It is the only art where functional ideas create form.
How a group of people express themselves through architecture?
Architecture is also art, merging form and function. A beautiful building can be a work of art. Certain architectural styles can become "signatures" for the architects. Read about Frank Lloyd Wright.
What shapes do hydrocarbons NOT form?
Hydrocarbons do not form perfect geometric shapes like spheres or cubes. They are usually more irregular or chain-like structures due to the arrangement of carbon and hydrogen atoms in their molecules.
Why was buckminsterfullerene given its name?
Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) was an architect famous for his geodesic domes. Buckminsterfullerene is a molecule made up of 60 carbon atoms in an arrangement that resembles, on a microscopic scale, the geodesic dome. So it was given that name in honor of Buckminster Fuller. Buckminsterfullerene is one member of an entire class of molecules composed entirely of carbon in the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube. Spherical fullerenes are sometimes called buckyballs.
What geometric shape starts with the letter g?
The geometric shape that starts with the letter "G" is a "geodesic dome." A geodesic dome is a spherical structure composed of a network of geometric shapes called geodesic polyhedra. These polyhedra are typically triangles or other polygons that are arranged to form a dome-like structure. Geodesic domes are known for their strength and efficiency in distributing stress across the structure.
Why do you use geodesic domes?
A geodesic domeis a spherical or partial-spherical shell structure or lattice shell based on a network of great circles(geodesics) on the surface of a sphere. The geodesics intersect to form triangular elements that have local triangular rigidity and also distribute the stress across the structure. When completed to form a complete sphere, it is a geodesic sphere. A dome is enclosed, unlike open geodesic structures such as playground climbers.Typically a geodesic dome design begins with an icosahedron inscribed in a hypothetical sphere, tiling each triangular face with smaller triangles, then projecting the vertices of each tile to the sphere. The endpoints of the links of the completed sphere are the projected endpoints on the sphere's surface. If this is done exactly, sub-triangle edge lengths take on many different values, requiring links of many sizes. To minimize this, simplifications are made. The result is a compromise of triangles with their vertices lying approximately on the sphere. The edges of the triangles form approximate geodesic paths over the surface of the dome.Geodesic designs can be used to form any curved, enclosed space. Standard designs tend to be used because unusual configurations may require complex, expensive custom design of each strut, vertex and panel.See the related link.
Does a geodesic form get proportionally stronger or weaker as it increases in size?
Stronger because there is more conections on it.
A buckyball is a term to describe what?
A buckyball is a short form of buckminsterfullerene. This is a form of Carbon C60 that has a molecular shape like a geodesic dome.
What are shell and frame structures sometimes with geodesic form?
If you want to know this because it is your homework (Yes, I am talking about Ms.Brooking's grade 7 class) then tough luck because you guys have to think about this yourself. But if not, thank you for your interest in structures, but I am sorry that I have not written an answer. Sincerely, Sarah .M
What is the process that form Soufriere Hills volcano on Montserrat?
from lava domes from previous eruptions
Is a dome a 3 dimensional shape?
Yes, a dome is a three-dimensional shape. It is typically characterized by a curved surface that is often hemispherical or elliptical in form, rising above a flat base. Domes are commonly seen in architecture, such as in churches and governmental buildings, where they create an expansive interior space.
A new form of architecture that emerged in the high Middle Ages was called the style?
A new form of architecture that emerged in the high Middle Ages was called the French style, or Gothic architecture.
What is a form of carbon in which the carbon bonds are arranged in a repeating pattern similar to a geodesic dome?
Fullerenes are a form of carbon where the carbon atoms are arranged in a repeating pattern similar to a geodesic dome. These molecules can take shape in different forms such as buckyballs, nanotubes, or graphene, showcasing unique properties like high strength and conductivity.
Does forest wedging form exfoliation domes?
No, forest wedging does not directly form exfoliation domes. Exfoliation domes are typically formed due to variations in temperature causing expansion and contraction of rocks, leading to concentric slabs peeling off the rock surface. Forest wedging, on the other hand, refers to the action of tree roots widening existing joints or cracks in rocks.
