Structural Frames
Novum Structures
The Architecturally Exposed Steel (AES) System is typically utilized in applications where welded connections, very large pieces, curved or custom profiles or similar conditions exist and other Novum Structures are inappropriate.
The Beam to Beam (BB) System was specifically developed to achieve single-layer structures using hidden mechanical structural connections. Improved spanning capability is achieved by use of larger elements and less connections.
The Block Node, or Block Knoten (BK), System features a contemporary, clean design aesthetic and was developed to mechanically connect bending-resistant, rectangular hollow sections in a three-dimensional spatial grid. Ideal solution for domes and vaults.
The Free Form (FF) System is the worlds first inventoried system for single-layer surface architecture with free geometry. Using hollow sections and double-node technology, it is ideal for spatial structures.
The Glass to Glass, or Kugel Knoten (KK), System is a classic space-frame design consisting of spherical nodes and circular hollow sections. Typically used in double-layer applications and has great strength-to-weight performance with excellent spanning capabilities.
