In architecture and structural engineering a space frame or space structure is a rigid lightweight truss like structure constructed from interlocking struts in a geometric pattern.
Space frames can be used to span large areas with few interior supports.
Members are circular hollow sections with cone shaped steel forgings welded at the ends which accommodate connecting bolts.
Like the truss a space frame is strong because of the inherent rigidity of the triangle.
