WHY BAMBOO ?
One of bamboo’s disadvantages is

about durability. Bamboo is
bamboo has a light density and
Indonesia has various types of subjected to attack by fungi,

WHY DEPLOYABLE ?
A deployable structure is Mobile and rapidly

CIMANGGUNG BAMBOO COMMUNITY HALL PBN 2 - UNPAR & JUBIT - 2016
DESIGN | STRUCTURAL SYSTEM

 PLANAR SCISSOR BAR - LONGITUDINAL ARRANGEMENT

 PLANAR SCISSOR BAR - LONGITUDINAL ARRANGEMENT
ANALYSIS:
•VERY WEAK AGAINTS LATERAL FORCES PERPENDICULAR TO THE LENGTH OF FLOOR PLAN
•HORIZONTAL BAR’S TENSION FORCE AT CORNER MODULE IS HIGHER THAN AT MIDDLE MODULE
DESIGN | MODULE DESIGN

 3 MODULES (LIMITED TRANSPORT CAPACITY)
ANALYSIS:
• STRUCTURAL MODULES WITH 2-STOREY POTENTIAL REQUIRED BREAK-DOWN TO SMALLER SUB-MODULES
•EVEN WITH ONLY 3 SUB-MODULES, THE DESIGN DID NOT ARRIVE AT THE REQUIRED SIMPLICITY
• HOWEVER, FINAL FIGURE SOMEWHAT ACHIEVE IMAGE OF MODERNITY
DESIGN | JOINERY
 BOLT AND NUTS (+ WIRE & HOSE CLAMP TIGHTENERS TO REDUCE CRACKING)
ANALYSIS:
•PREMATURE DRYING PROCESS RESULTED IN INEFFECTIVE TIGHTENERS DUE TO EXTREME SHRINKAGE
DESIGN | JOINERY
 BOLT AND NUTS
ANALYSIS:
•THE IMPACT OF HOLE’S DIAMETER ON BAMBOO (LOCAL BUCKLING vs CRACK)
DESIGN | JOINERY
 STEEL PLATE
ANALYSIS:
•PREMATURE DRYING PROCESS RESULTED IN INEFFECTIVE TIGHTENERS DUE TO EXTREME SHRINKAGE
DESIGN | LOCKING MECHANISM

 HORIZONTAL BAR AS STIFFENER
ANALYSIS:
•STIFFENER WORKED AS PLANNED TO MAINTAIN DESIRED FINAL MODULAR SHAPE
• LOW UNIFORMITY OF BAMBOO POLES RESULTS IN LOW PRECISSION OF PRE-DRILLED BOLT HOLES
• STIFFENER BEAM HAD TO BE DRILLED IN-SITU AFTER ASEMBLING MODULES
CONSTRUCTION| MODULE PRODUCTION

 SPACE & SKILL REQUIREMENTS
ANALYSIS:
• PRODUCTION OF SUB-MODULES REQUIRE SOMEWHAT LARGE SPACE
• PRECISION LEVEL WERE LOW DUE TO MANUAL WORKS WITH HAND & POWER TOOLS
•PROTOTYPE MODULES WERE CONSTRUCTED BY NEWLY TRAINED PERSONELS VS SKILLED ONES
CONSTRUCTION| TRANSPORTATION
 SUB-MODULES TO ALLOW HIGHER TRANSPORT ACCESSIBILITY
5,20 m
ANALYSIS:
• AT 5 m, THE ‘X’ SUB-MODULES WERE STILL TOO LONG FOR SMALLER TRUCKS TO NEGOTIATE NARROW WAYS
• RISK OF INCREASING COMPLEXITY IF BREAKING THE ‘X’ INTO SMALLER SUB-MODULES
CONSTRUCTION| INSTALLATION
ANALYSIS:
• LOWER JOINTS ARE PRONE TO DAMAGE DURING TILTING UP / ERECTION
• DIFFICULT ADJUSMENT DURING INSERTION OF LOWER PARTS INTO METAL SOCKETS
BUMI AWI KABULA KABALE UNPAR & JUBIT – 2016-2017

(Sundanese Proverbs: People have to be adapt or adjust themselves wherever they are)
 creating various building’s span
 creating various building’s form

 PLANAR SCISSOR BAR - TRANVERSAL ARRANGEMENT
ANALYSIS:
• STRUCTURAL MODULES WITH 2-STOREY POTENTIAL ACHIEVED WITH A SINGLE FOLDABLE MODULE
• THROUGH A SINGLE MODULE, THE DESIGN DID ARRIVE AT THE SIMPLICITY, ALBEIT SOME CRITICAL WEAKNESS
• FINAL FIGURE SOMEWHAT ACHIEVE IMAGE OF MODERNITY THROUGH A FAMILIAR GABLED-ROOF SHAPE

 ONE MODULE

ANALYSIS:
•MOMENT DIAGRAM OF CANTILEVERED BEAM TRANSLATED INTO MODIFIED TRUSS
•
DESIGN | JOINERY
 STEEL BASE PLATE (WITH BOLT AND NUTS (+ WIRE & HOSE CLAMP TIGHTENERS TO REDUCE CRACKING)
ANALYSIS:
• STEEL BASE PLATES HELPED ACHIEVING A DEGREE OF PRECISSION IN MOVEMENT & MOBILITY
•BAMBOO POLES FORMATION DEMANDED SOMEWHAT LARGE BASE PLATE, A POTENTIAL COST & MATERIAL
DRAWBACK
DESIGN | JOINERY
 MODIFIED STEEL PLATES (WITH BOLT AND NUTS (+ WIRE & HOSE CLAMP TIGHTENERS TO REDUCE
CRACKING)
ANALYSIS:
•ATTACHMENT FLANGES ALLOW LINEAR, CONCENTRIC, EVEN ELLIPTICAL FLOOR PLANS
• HOWEVER, THE PLACEMENT OF MULTIPLE PIN-JOINTS ACCROSS EACH OTHER DENIED INTERNAL STABILITY

 ADJUSTABLE BAR
ANALYSIS:
• THE ADJUSTABLE BAR IS THE ESSENTIAL TO ACHIEVE MULTIPLE-SPAN CAPABILITY WITH A DEGREE OF PRECISION
• MOST COMPLEX MECHANISM IN EACH MODULE (THREADED ROD + BOLT + MODIFIED STEEL PIPE + STEEL
PLATES) – REQUIRING HIGHER SKILL IN WELDING & STEEL WORKS
•

 PATTERN & SUPPORT ELEMENTS
ANALYSIS:
• OVERLAPING POLES IN THE DESIGN REQUIRES SUPPORT ELEMENTS DURING PRODUCTION TO AVOID EXCESS
TWISTING
• WEAK AGAINTS LATERAL FORCES PERPENDICULAR TO THE MID SECTION OF A SINGLE PLANAR MODULE
• BAMBOO POLES AT POINTS OF JOINERY ARE VULNERABLE TO DAMAGE DURING ASSEMBLING & ERECTION
 EASE OF TRANSPORT
4,20 m
ANALYSIS:
• FOLDABILITY OF A SINGLE MODULE ALLOW EASE OF TRANSPORT, SIMPLICITY OF PACKING, & SHORT
DEPLOYMENT TIME
• SINGLE MODULE STILL EXTEND OUT OF SMALL TRUCK ALTHOUGH FOLDED AT 4.20 m & +/- 100 kg
• BAMBOO POLES AT POINTS OF JOINERY ARE VULNERABLE TO DAMAGE DURING LOADING & UNLOADING
CONSTRUCTION| INSTALATION
ANALYSIS:
•WEAK AGAINTS LATERAL FORCES PERPENDICULAR TO THE MID SECTION OF A SINGLE PLANAR MODULE,
ESPECIALLY WITH INAPPROPRIATE ERECTION METHOD
•BAMBOO POLES AT POINTS OF JOINERY ARE VULNERABLE TO DAMAGE DURING ASSEMBLING & ERECTION
•WEAK AGAINTS LATERAL FORCES PERPENDICULAR TO THE MID SECTION OF A SINGLE PLANAR MODULE
UNPAR BAMBOO CAFETERIA UNPAR - 2017

 PLANAR SCISSOR BAR (CANTILEVER) - TRANVERSAL ARRANGEMENT

DESIGN | JOINERY
 BOLT AND NUTS
ANALYSIS:
•REQUIRES AN ADEQUATE PERFORATION SKILL TO AVOID TORN ON THE BAMBOO
•SEATS ON A PEDESTAL AND BOLTED TO A STEEL PLATE

 HORIZONTAL BAR AS ‘FASTENER’
ANALYSIS:
•FASTENER IS AIMED TO LOCK THE MODULE IN THE FINAL SHAPE (AS-BUILT)
• LOW UNIFORMITY OF BAMBOO POLES RESULTS IN LOW PRECISSION OF PRE-PERFORATED BOLT HOLES
• FASTENER HAD TO BE PERFORATED IN-SITU AFTER MODULE ASEMBLING

 SPACE & SKILL REQUIREMENTS
ANALYSIS:
• THE PRODUCTION TIME OF A MODULE IS 120 MINUTES BY TWO WORKERS
• PRECISION LEVEL WERE LOW DUE TO MANUAL WORKS WITH HAND & POWER TOOLS
•MODULES WERE CONSTRUCTED BY NEWLY TRAINED PERSONELS VS SKILLED ONES
 EASILY DEPLOYED AND TRANSPORTED
4,20 m
ANALYSIS:
• DEPLOYED STRUCTURE LENGTH IS 4.2 METRES
•EASILY DEPLOYED AND TRANSPORTED
CONSTRUCTION| INSTALLATION
ANALYSIS:
• THE INSTALLATION INCLUDES DEPLOYING AND BOLTING
• THE INSTALLATION TIME IS 20 MINUTES PER MODULE, REQUIRING TWO WORKERS
•EACH MODULE ARE CONNECTED USING THREE HORIZONTAL BAMBOOS
RESIPLOY BAMBOO SHELTER BERNADETTE SUDIRA’S RESEARCH- 2016
DESIGN| STRUCTURAL SYSTEM

 SPATIAL SCISSOR BAR + RECIPROCAL TOP JOINT
ANALYSIS:
• INSPIRED BY UMRELLA-LIKE DEPLOYMENT
• 1 MODULE HAS ALL NECESSARY SUB-MODULES TO ACHIEVE WHOLE STAND-ALONE DEPLOYABLE STRUCTURE
• UNPAR’s 1st TRUE DEPLOYABLE BAMBOO STRUCTURE
DESIGN| MODULE DESIGN

 DEPLOYABILITY
ANALYSIS:
• HEXAGONAL FLOOR PLAN
• 5 SIDES OF SCISSOR-BAR COMPONENTS
•1 SIDE OF N-BAR COMPONENTS WITH 2 TELESCOPIC / PISTON-LIKE VERTICAL BARS
• RECIPROCAL TOP COMPONENT WITH STEEL-RING AS ATTACHMENT FOR PIN-JOINTS
DESIGN| JOINERY
 SIMPLE JOINTS
ANALYSIS:
• SIMPLE TYPICAL JOINT CONNECTING 2 & 3 BAMBOO POLES
• BAMBOO POLES AT POINTS OF JOINERY ARE VULNERABLE TO DAMAGE DURING ASSEMBLING & ERECTION
DESIGN| LOCKING MECHANISM

 RECIPROCAL ROOF
ANALYSIS:
• RECIPROCAL SYSTEM ACHIEVED WHEN FULLY OPENED / DEPLOYED
• STEEL-RING AS ATTACHMENT FOR PIN-JOINTS, KEEPING POLES IN POSITION WHEN CLOSED / UNDEPLOYED
• THIN STEEL PLATES FOR ATTACHMENT RING PRONE TO DEFORMATION, REDUCING RECIPROCAL CAPABILITY

 PATTERN & SUPPORT ELEMENTS
ANALYSIS:
• SIMPLE X & N SUB-MODULES EACH SERVES DIRECTLY AS ONE SIDE OF THE HEXAGON
•
 EASE OF TRANSPORT
5,80 m
ANALYSIS:
• AT 5.8 m, THE CLOSED STRUCTURE IS UNSUITABLE TO FIT INTO SMALL TRANSPORT VEHICLES, HARD TO
MANOUVRE THROUGH TIGHT WAYS
• HOWEVER, ONCE STOOD UP, IT TOOK ONLY 1 M2 AREA IN CLOSED MODE
CONSTRUCTION| INSTALATION
 QUICK DEPLOYMENT
ANALYSIS:
• IT TOOK 4-5 PERSON & 1.5’ TO DEPLOY THE CLOSED MODE INTO THE FULLY DEPLOYED MODE
• JOINT AREA OF TOP & BODY SUB-MODULES IS THE WEAKEST PART DURING MANOUVRES & ERECTION
• RISK OF POLES-END BREAKAGE FROM TORSION AND BENDING FORCES
CONCLUSION
CONCERN OF DEPLOYABLE BAMBOO STRUCTURE:
 MODULE SINGULARITY
 JOINERY VS DEPLOYABILITY & INSTALLATION
 LOCKINGMECHANISM :
ELEMENT LOCKING – BRACING VS. STRUCTURAL SYSTEM.
 INSTALATION METHODS
