【 摘 要 】

Transformable structures in architecture can change their shape or function in response to varying climatic conditions, changing environment and needs for different functional requirements or to emergency situations. Depending on how the transformation is doing, transformable structures can be deployable or demountable, as a kit-parts system. Deployable structures can also be divided in four main groups: spatial bar structures; foldable plate structures; tensegrity structures; and membrane structures. In this paper, some planar bar mechanisms proposed by Ten Fold Engineering company, which can be integrated in deployable structures, will be discussed.
