esquisse three: locking systems


For this exercise I began by playing around with a number of concertina folds then continued to connect these with a simple lock and key system. Although it held my body weight, any more, and it would of failed.


I then tested the strength of two large triangles that were locked together by four strategically placed slits. This was a lot stronger than the first, although may have buckled under pressure.
