Wall section



The current drawing is an investigation in to how the skin wall integrates heat, plumbing, pressure, and structure into its material. Some issues are the end connections of the pneumatic muscles matrices ( in specified locations to come); retaining wall details for excavated wall, retaining pressure in pods through pressure lock detailing. I figure the drawing has a lot of work to be done but gives some intent. The retaining wall will act as my foundation and the skin, muscles structure will build from that. Tie rod to skin connection will also need to be worked out. More drawings to follow.
