Ken Spranghers Construction Period 04/2016 - 08/2016 Two projects are presented here: Hexa Structures for Salone Del Mobile 2016 and Pukkelpop 2016. More information about this new design culture on www.hexastructures.com. The three-dimensional structures are built up using standard steel scaffolding. These complex scaffolding structures are analysed using SCIA Engineer which allows us to include effects of non-linear behaviour such as the non-linear resistance of the joints and the effects of large deformations. Due to the large amount of steel members, the use of Steel and Scaffolding packages are essential to carry out global and local checks. Thanks to its systematic approach and user-friendly interface SCIA Engineer allows us to analyse these complex “transient” structures with relative ease. Versatile construction system using scaffolding and pallets. This construction system is cheap and produces zero waste, installs the possibility of adaptation and co-creation of a design on site, due to its modular nature. It can thus provide infrastructure for different functions: an event stage artwork, an exhibition space, an urban bar, a public space appropriation tool, an urban camping dormitory and many more. Structures for Salone del Mobile 2016 - Milan, Italy and Pukkelpop - Hasselt, Belgium Hexa Structures Contact dr. ir. Ken Spranghers ir. arch. Michael Lefeber Address Sluis 283 2400 Mol, Belgium Website www.hexastructures.com Hexa Structures is the current state-of-affairs of a new design culture, focussing on the need of design for deconstruction due to fast-changing contemporary requirements. Developing strategies that integrate time into design in order to support human needs, now and in the future. Hexa Structures brought a new wave in the conception of artworks for music events all over the world.
