Structural Vault Analysis
For the structural analysis we decided to play with the geometry of a vault linked to certain parameters that were able to change the physical appearance of the whole piece. In the first case, we have a regular vault without any change. The height is 4m and the length is 8 meters. For the second and the third cases, the ideas was to deform the middle point of the of the arches that control the shape of the vault.

“Y” Structure
The structural component was designed according to the technic of TOPOLOGICAL OPTIMIZATION. The inception of our design was a rectangular block influenced by a puntual load on top of it. The distribution of the strength lines produced is in a shape of ”Y” letter , so we kept this form for a structural component. The result was produced thanks to the use of a specific software, called TOPOSTRUCT. After analyze the stress lines inside the block, we got the shape of the component we are working with.
