In a group of 5 members, select the design of one of the members in studio 3. Working in a group, you are required to re-design the roof of that building by using truss designs. By using any material of your choice, construct the model of your design. The size of the model must be appropriate to fit well on an A2 board. ​

​

In this project, we in groups of 5 are tasked with designing a truss roof for one of our member's Semester 3 studio VIC designs. The new roof truss is to fit with the spirit and atmosphere of the old design while still showing considerations for structure, construction and joints.

​

To better showcase the jointing details and truss design, we made a few large models.
