A to-go library
A pavilion at the Frankfurt Book Fair with 400 people standing capacity stands for a temporary library. The horizontal boards between the ribs give rigidity to the structure and serve at the same time as bookshelves. The pavilion consists of three shell-shaped timber frames that are superimposed and covered with a membrane made of recycled plastic (PVC). The lateral bracing members are connected to the rib panels with the connectors RICON® and DUO 35 enabling both easy assembly and disassembly.
„Both connectors can be assembled several times and are still strong even after the tenth assembly,“ says Hendrik Pfeffinger, project manager at Holzbau Amann.
