Multipurpose Building in Valencia

Space frames are usually composed of prefabricated nodes and members. Just like girder grids, they are counted among the non-directional structures. In the early 1940s, the engineer Max Mengeringhausen made decisive contributions to this light-weight and efficient building method with the development of his MEngeringhausen ROhrbauweise (tubular construction method) – or MERO for short.
