Function
Triodetic system samples show the function, look and weight of the system it creates. The system is usually made of aluminum keyways (connectors) and aluminum or steel tubes. The hub can contain up to 8 slots for 8 different tubes. The system makes it possible to build a plethora of structures such as bridges, domes, shelters, space frames, tents, railing, etc. Les échantillons pour les systèmes Triodétique démontrent la fonction, le poids et style du système qu'il peut créer. Le système est fait avec des rainures ou des entrées de clefs en aluminium pour connecter des tuyaux soit fait avec le même matériel ou en acier. Le moyeu peut contenir jusqu'à huit créneaux pour huit tuyaux différents. Le système fait en sorte qu'il est possible de construire de nombreuses structures comme des ponts, des tentes, des dômes, des structures spatiales, des rambardes, des abris et beaucoup plus.
Technical
The Triodetic systems are made of a particular Canadian patent which consist of a serrated aluminum keyway (connector) where galvanized tubing with coined edges fit into the keyway. The system allows structures to be lightweight but strong. Most orders from Triodetic are custom made which means it is possible to build virtually any kind of structure imaginable. Most Triodetic structures can be built/assembled by the customer with very few basic tools and no prior training. Due to the easy slip-tube-into-connector system, all structures can easily be shipped in boxes and assembled on site. No heavy equipment or machinery and skilled labour is required. Les systèmes Triodétique sont construits avec un brevet canadien. Leur système fonctionne avec des rainures ou des entrées de clefs en aluminium pour connecter des tuyaux galvanisés avec les bords rainurés. Le système permet la construction de structure légère mais fort. Les commandes de Triodétique somment personnalisées et les acheteurs peuvent construite n'importe quelle structure imaginable avec très peu d'outils et aucune spécialisation ou formation nécessaire ni des machines lourdes. Leur système connecte leurs tuyaux avec un glissement à des morceaux de fixation. Toutes les structures peuvent être expédiées et assembler sur site.
