The process of triaxial weaving illustrated
Different variations of the component, controlled by the parameters in grasshopper.

Triaxial Weaving and Plain Weaving

The method of construction of triaxial weave:
‘Sparse triaxial weaving uses three sets of parallel fibres, known as the warp, the whug and the weft. The whug is not present in conventional rectangular weaving. During construction it acts very much like a second warp. The warp can be laid down in simple parallel lines. The whug [...]

Replacing the strips with pipes

Next step = to make this parametric!
