Exploration of new structural forms. Basic physical principles and laws governing these forms. Study of membrane surfaces. Arrangements of forms for structural efficiency. Minimum surfaces and modular developments (close packing and hierarchies). Use of modular symmetry to create optimum structural systems.

As printed in the 1977–78 to 1987–88 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
