News,Biomimetic Architecture: Tree Inspires Support Columns

Structural problems of load on columns led to an analysis of trees. Trees are able to naturally distribute weight through its branches. Which lead to tree inspired columns with branches that are able to hold more weight than regular columns. The column’s branches allow an even weight distribution and transfer lateral load to the nave columns eliminating the need for buttresses.
