Sammanfattning:This research culminates in an experimental prototype, carried out through the methodological synthesis of the experimental design, for which folding systems were considered as a reference point. This concept was developed through a folding umbrella prototype. Said modeling had two historical referents: the itinerant theater of architect Emilio Pérez Piñero, based on the principle of a folding structure, and Leonardo Da Vinci, who created a system of reciprocal structures using constructive and manifest schemes. Following these concepts, the prototype was developed using the Witness software, where the supporting structure and the membrane were calculated. The highlight of the construction of this prototype was the assembly process, carried out with the help of undergraduate and graduate students, which generated new technical knowledge on the simulation and manufacturing of folding and transformable systems.
