THE SONORAN PENTAPUS
permanent 800sf gridshell pavillion and landscape
The Sonoran Pentapus represents over two years of student design-build effort. I was involved with the project from conception to occupancy and beyond, focusing my efforts on designing and delivering the gridshell structure in all its geometric complexity - what I saw to be the most challenging componenent of the project and the best use of my particular skills. In assuming responsibility for the design, documentation, and construction of the gridshell structure, I took on a broad variety of work where I: produced official permit drawings, shop drawings, and fabrication drawings for the gridshell and construction structures [with Alex Mayer] designed the final form of the gridshell and adapted it to new information, restrictions, and possibilities [independently, frequent group feedback] digitally modeled gridshells for iterative design development and communication, construction documentation, engineering simulations, and construction use [independently, group feedback] designed and prototyped cladding system, created installation instructions, and led installation [independently, minor group feedback] developed the construction methodology and coordinated work on the construction of the gridshell and all temporary structures, including scheduling, process and sequencing, material ordering, fabrication drawings, etc [independently, with sustained group feedback] presented the project to administration, professionals, and regulatory committees in design reviews [honored to have beenunanimously nominated by my peers to do so] corresponded and collaborated with professionals both officially and informally, including structural engineers, electricians, permitting officials, university planning commitees, certified riggers, metal suppliers, and more independently educated myself and developed scripts [with help from experts I reached out to] to model gridshell structures and to automate steps of digital modeling created most presentation renderings and branding documents cast concrete, mocked up half-scale gridshell, checked code compliance, designed and installed planters, built formwork, tied rebar cages, welded lots, rented tools, ran CNC, built wood scaffolding, demoed concrete, designed table, instructed equipment operators, made shop drawings and cut sheets, laidout and tacked steel assemblies, and more. 01/2015 - 05/2016 design build studio crit Chris Trumble

RIGGING DETAILS
FINAL POSITI
across // distribution frame and rigging tower permit drawings // I developed an internal diaphragm that the gridshell would rest on during forming to ensure that we were as close as possible to our design geometry without extensive surveying or post erection adjustment. With only slight additive modification to my design [plywood apex cap], the distribution frame created a synclastic form within the acceptable tolerances of our engineering requirements. The integrated tower system and hoist saved expensive crane rentals and allowed us to lift, lower, and hold the shell with ease.
8 days // By designing the gridshell erection systems to be prefabricated in our shop and then quickly assembled on site, we were able to erect the tower, distribution frame, gridmat, and lift the gridshell in only 8 days. 13

CLADDING Cladding for the gridshell is designed to be efficient, durable, and delightful. The design of the overlapping perforated zinc panels accentuates the geometry of the lattice and create astonishing moire affects in addition to providing diffuse partial shade. Parametric modeling was used to refine the slightly different form of each of the three panel types to minimize material use.

CLIMAX BLOOM
A living market for a living city AIA ARIZONA DESIGN EXCELENCE 2016
Flea markets are not traditionally within the scope of architectural attention or influence. What an architect might do - programming, design, and construction, is instead the responsibility of every vendor, functioning around their own needs, available materials, and existing patterns of the market. Because spatial invention is continuous and distributed, flea markets are efficient, responsive, and unique spaces. Perhaps architecture can swing in this direction. 08/2015 - 05/2016 thesis crit Dan Hoffman
Le Bestia // collage // overhead images of the informal outdoor markets of mexico city. these markets are beautiful, lively, and efficient things that emerge, adapt, and retreat through collective efforts of individuals. Like a flock of birds, order is not the result of rules but of shared behavioral patterns and logic.

ANYTHING LIVING GROWS Jungles, cities, economies, and other interdependent systems emerge perpetually - they do not spring to life in an immediately diverse state, nor do they forever rest at any one. Through diversification, mutation, and expansion, these systems continually develop higher levels of sophistication to utilize more of the energy from their environment. So does the ad hoc flea market. These systems don’t occur in sudden binary chunks, they grow slowly and respond to their environment. They self modulate. Our role in architectural interventions should be to support them as a dynamic, variable, mutable, and user-driven process rather than a single finished product. To create a tectonic and logical facilitator to foster the best qualities of these systems. 21

left // plans of the initial growth of the flea market growing from small clusterings of portable modules to a highly dense, established, and diversified organization covering their initial site.
SURVIVING IN THE GROWING CITY Expansion of the Phoenix airport will claim the site of the existing flea market within the next decade. Future disturbances will affect the Climax Bloom Flea Market, but because of it’s modular, mutable design, it can easily spread out, reconfigure, and recede. Change is to be expected and planned for in the urban environment.
23
THE TOOLS The fundamental unit of Climax Bloom is the vending module. Ultra-light structures made of FRP, aluminum, etfe, and cable net PV arrays are designed to be easily set up by two people [larger structures involve machinery as well]. Through this design, parts of the market can be easily reconfigured in response to changing vendors, seasons, or events.

123 WAY load resistance test structure // group project and drawings First iteration [right] held only 700 lbs of appplied pressure - failed because of rotational instability. Third iteration [below] held 7600 lbs of applied pressure - failed because of undersized tensile member on the underside of the hanging truss in the center. This failure caused the near-vertical rods that supported the truss from the arches to deflect laterally towards the center [photo 2], causing a local buckling failure of the arch [photo 3].The wide section profile of the arch is only efficient at dealing with loads in the vertical axis and could not resist the diagonal force.

STATEMENT OF INTENT Following a “bandaid” mk.2 frame, we have made great strides to more articulately resist to the chrushing mechanism by creating a structure composed of more form specific components. Our primary moves have been re-imagining the compressive upper frame as a continuous, single member spanning from bearing point to bearing point; and designing a more robust sub-applicator frame to transfer the tension vertically (rather than diagonally) to the center of each compressive arch. Our flexural frame which spans above the applicator remains, but with it now a unified component, we can express arch action more clearly with widening of the frame at the area of greatest stress, the center. The profile of the arms is now an I-BEAM, expressing their embodied flexure and resisting it more effectively than a vertical profile did in the past.
SYSTEM AXON 1/8” = 1”
The primary new construct of this iteration is the triangular truss frame which bears the load applicator. It is conceived as means of broadening the application area, allowing us to move it from near the center to directly underneath the strongest point of the arch. At the center of each arch, by welding in tabs connecting the top and bottom webs and continuing below the frame, we build a pocket for the connection between the arch and the frame underneath. These welded tabs distribute the tension more evenly along the arch, allowing for greater strength. They also afford lateral support, but the primary lateral support is provided by the triangulation of the arches themselves as well as the interior x-bracing, which has a 2” deep diaphragm to resist buckling.

STATEMENT OF INTENT 2 of the defining features we designed into our device are its flexibility when unloaded and the translation of applied forces from underneath the press to a triangular frame which circumscribes the actuator above the hexagonal plate. We developed an assembly that would be supple when unloaded for two primary reasons: loading our resistor into the press and minimizing unecessary weight. The independence of the three arms (connected only with s.s. cable underneath and unattached compressive members above) will allow us to tilt them to get them in the frame, even in a situation where the hexagonal pad couldn’t move up more than 2 inches from the no-build zone (given loading height). This construction reduces weight by eliminating any solid bearing plate in lieu of cables.

Laboratory Project One: 1-2-3 Way | First Iteration
The notion to begin moving structure above the applicator emerged early in our design with our understanding that the no-build zone ran all the way to the interior edge of the footing pads; with the height of the zone at these footings, any connection to the applicator would be at a very shallow angle and ill-suited for resistance. So, 2 lower arms extend from each corner which travel 3” horizontally under the pad and support it on multi-axis bearings for a moment-independent roller connection. These lower arms are held vertically in tension by the upper steel-plate cantilever, and horizontally stabilized from torsion by diagonal steel rod bracing. These 3 mostly-seperate assemblies are prevented from tipping into the center by compressive elements which rest in pockets on the upper arms and transfer forces between the three of them into the legs, and ultimately into the table.

STATEMENT OF INTENT Our second iteration has been in large part a movement towards embodying the load applicator within a triangular truss bay and massively reducing weight from our previous 19lbs. We continue to pursue our application of a semi-independent keystone and hinged connections below the press for structural expression as well as our own intrigue. -
