Constain's V Plate/Folded plates are assemblies of flat plates rigidly connected together along their edges in such a way that the structural system capable of carrying loads without the need for additional supporting beams along mutual edges.
Engineer Eudene Freyssinet performed the first roof with the folded structure in 1923 as an aircraft hangar at Orly Airport in Paris.
Folding Systems in Nature
The principle of folding as a tool to develop a general structural shape has been known for a long time. Folded structure systems which are analogous to several biological systems such as found at broad leaf-tree leaves, petals and foldable insect wings, are adopted to be employed in a new, technical way.
The Principle of V-Plate Construction
The structural characteristics of folding structures depend on-
