A reticulated shell is a space truss structure similar to a flat grid shell, which is based on rods and arranged in a grid pattern according to certain rules. It forms a spatial framework based on shell structures, combining the properties of both trusses and shells. Its force transmission characteristics primarily involve the point-by-point transfer of tensile, compressive, or shearing forces within the shell in two directions. This structure is a space framework that has received considerable attention both domestically and internationally, and has a broad prospect for development. Reticulated shell structures include single-layer reticulated shell structures, prestressed reticulated shell structures, plate-conical reticulated shell structures, rib-ring cable-supported reticulated shell structures, and single-layer cross-cylinder reticulated shell structures, among others.
