	Pavilion at the Arnold Arboretum - Boston MA - Maryann Thompson Architects
		This project is a collaboration with Reed I Hilderbrand Landscape Architects. The plan of the new gardens is organic in form and spatially rich, evoking both the botanical traditions of French parterre gardens and the intricate patterns found in nature, such as the branching of trees or the veined configurations of insect wings.
		The Pavilion structure, within the new vine and shrub collection, serves as an outdoor classroom and a place of repose.
		Visitors moving toward the pavilion experience a spatial sequence of continual discovery and disclosure, alternating between the intimacy created by the planted vine structures and the expansiveness of the central lawn.

		The pavilion is a freestanding atrium, its legs located between the ramp and the core of the pavilion.
		The dynamic analysis showed that the pavilion structure is far stiffer than that of a typical building because of the redundancy in the gravity framing and lateral load-resisting elements.
		The columns of the new pavilion are incorporated as spread footings in the structure of both the new and existing basements.

	Pavilion (structure) - guideofcasinos.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Pavilion, in the English language (derived from French, "pavillon") can refer to any structure large or small, however there is usually a connection with relaxation and pleasure.
		A pavilion can also be a small garden building similar to a summerhouse, these were particularly popular in the 18th century, and can be equated to the Italian casino.
		By contrast a pavilion can also be a far larger building such as the Royal Pavilion at Brighton, which is in fact a large oriental style palace, however like its smaller namesakes the common factor is that it was built for pleasure and relaxation.

	British Pavilion
		All of the joints in the structure are either pinned or bolted depending upon the connection used for application.
		The dead loads which act on the structure are the materials and physical features themselves from the roof, to the ground.
		If I were to stand in the very middle of the pavilion, on the roof structure, I would see in a structural diagram that all of the forces caused by myself upon the structure seem to be transferred equally to the corners and to the side of the structure.

	1970 Expo - ASCE
		The U. Pavilion for EXPO 70 in Osaka, Japan features a roof covering 100,000 sq ft with a clear span of 262 by 460 ft. The total weight of the air-supported portion is about one pound per square foot.
		An air-supported structure had been the plan of the design team from the beginning, partly because in the original scheme it was intended to project giant-screen films on the inner surface of the resulting dome.
		It was designed to have sufficient mass to prevent uplift with a factor of safety of 1.6 Between the base and the compression ring is a galvanized steel sheet, used to obtain a coefficient of friction of 0.4.

	ARCH'IT architetture / BASE 4. Loop.space
		The pavilion relies on spontaneous crowd congregation to propose a new radical way of perceiving a given sporting event, and each looped space is perceived as an immersive environment in which the relationship of scale and proportion between the viewer and projection are radically modified.
		The locomotion of the structure is solved as an integral part of the structure, with embedded direct drive wheels within the lowest row of the pixel polygons.
		There are three identified structural deformations: tilting (vertical deformation), loop formation (horizontal curvature) and twisting (diagonal deformation), and each space can perform them singularly or in combination to achieve the spatial quality requested by the programme and the user.

		The pavilion provides a covered area with seating for the immediate family of approximately 10-20 people and an uncovered paved area to provide space for approximately 50 additional people.
		The architectural style of the structure is preferred to be an open pavilion, with sturdy, simple shapes and easy-to-maintain structural elements and materials.
		The structure should be approximately 900 square feet (covered area) (25 feet x 36 feet) supported by the storage closet and two (minimum) to six (maximum) columns at a 10 foot minimum clear height.

	Making a Medieval Single-Pole Pavilion
		The pavilions shown are festooned with ropes, and the angle and number of the ropes make it possible that these pavilions had no internal support structure.
		Their pavilion was made by a company in England that supplies pavilions to a number of historical and re-enactment groups.
		Start by drawing a scale-drawing silhouette of the pavilion you want, with dimensions for the height of the eaves (the level of the spoked wheel), the height from the eaves to the peak of the roof, and the width (radius) at the eaves and at the ground.

	Osaka: Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The U.S. Pavilion at Expo 70 in Osaka is one of the very few buildings embodying major technical and architectural innovations that was also built quickly and inexpensively.
		Remarkably, the U.S. Pavilion's pneumatically supported 465 foot by 265 foot clear span dome was developed largely in response to Congress' 50% reduction in the project's budget.
		The Pavilion's primary structure and enclosure systems were made from only five materials: vinyl-coated fiberglass fabric and steel cables for the roof, held in place by a reinforced concrete ring girder resting on an earth berm (figure 3).

	Unasylva - No. 85 - Wood at Expo 67
		Common lumber, which has been used extensively in the pavilion, is particularly noteworthy where it has been used in the form of rough sawn boards, 90 × 36 centimeters (3 feet to 14 inches), to form an earth retaining wall around each of the four exhibit rooms found on the inside periphery of the pavilion.
		The center of the pavilion is covered by a pool of water which is surrounded by the walkways joining the exhibition rooms.
		A structural roof system combining lumber and plywood is supported by massive 40-meter (130-foot) long composite laminated wood beams with a cantilever of up to 24 meters (78 feet).

		The Swiss Pavilion was the representation of a tree called the "Radiant Structure," a pavilion with a show room, and a restaurant.
		The Pavilion differed from all others in that its main construction was not a building but a tree, and to encourage a smooth stream of visitors and to avoid long queues, the hall was kept free of obstacles.
		The Radiant Structure was a steel frame canti-lever with all the steel and aluminium units held by rivets and adhesives.

		The other columns (that are not attached to the roof, providing support) reiterate the vertical strength of the pines, tying the structural elements of the landscape to the natural surroundings.
		By installing a partial roof on the pavilion, areas of sun and shade are provided (see the plan), ensuring that your family and friends can use the structure year-round and in different weather conditions.

		As the core concept for this yearâs Korean Pavilion, the theme âLandscape of Differencesâ is based on the many differences that can be found in art and nature, internal space and the external outdoors, as well as the artists and their works.
		Derived from the Pavilion building, the Pavilionâs surrounding environment, and the open aspect of the Pavilion structure designed to blend in with nature, the exhibition theme and specifics highlight the unique identity of the Korean Pavilion.
		Subsequently, the outdoor vista is drawn into the exhibition space while the works installed within the Pavilion appear to be thrust into the outdoors which causes a kind of spatial invagination to take place, which in turn, commences a dialogue between the inside and the outside, the making of an aesthetic of permeation.

		Our 'clear span' aluminium frame pavilion marquees offer very flexible accommodation and can easily be erected on hard surfaces, scaffolding where the terrain is not level, as well as normal surfaces such as grass.
		Wide span structures with high eaves are ideal for grand events with large numbers, or for events with large theme items (huge backdrops, Roman Pillars etc), whereas narrow spans with a lower wall height can be utilized to create smaller, more intimate party environments.
		As the structures are modular extra 'bays' can be added or removed to accommodate an increase or decrease in numbers.
