Wot be Cognitive Vertigo But a discussion by people don't know the topic?
ANY triangle consisting of three joined members (wood or gold, and not
necessarily straight, or pinned) if supported on a base will "resist" any
load through any vertex. It is not particularly good at this and much less
rigid than a single member of the truss in direct load . Leonardo used
these a lot. Even made stylish cartoons of same. Called a simple triangular
truss. The basis of all space frames.
