Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Design of Demountable Reciprocal Frames With New Geometric Properties(Int. Association for Shell and Spatial Structures, 2022) Özen, Gülçin; Kiper, Gökhan; Korkmaz, KorayThis study aims to develop missing geometric knowledge for demountable reciprocal frames (RF). While designing a demountable RF, one should know the initial, in-process and final form of the RF. These processes require some specific geometric knowledge. There are some deficiencies about geometric properties in the previous studies about demountable RFs. In this study, the positions and the orientations of the nexors are found by using the Denavit-Hartenberg parameters. This information gives where the joints are placed, how they are oriented and take position according to one another. Besides, the influence of engagement length on the fan height and the base edge are analyzed. Thereby one will be able to find out how much space the RF covers with the known base edge. With the geometric knowledge obtained from this study, demountable RFs having different engagement lengths can be produced with the same nexors.
