Hyperboloid lattice Adziogol Lighthouse by V.G. Shukhov near Kherson, 1911. In the 1880s, Shukhov began to work on the problem of the design of roof systems to use a minimum of materials, time and labor. His calculations were most likely derived from mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev's work on the theory of best approximations of functions ...
This page is a list of hyperboloid structures. These were first applied in architecture by Russian engineer Vladimir Shukhov (1853–1939). Shukhov built his first example as a water tower ( hyperbolic shell ) for the 1896 All-Russian Exposition .
A hyperboloid is the surface obtained from a hyperboloid of revolution by deforming it by means of directional scalings, or more generally, of an affine transformation. A hyperboloid is a quadric surface , that is, a surface defined as the zero set of a polynomial of degree two in three variables.
Base of 30 St Mary Axe, London, UK The world's first diagrid hyperboloid structure in Polibino, Russia MyZeil, Frankfurt, Germany CCTV Headquarters, Beijing, China. A diagrid (a portmanteau of diagonal grid) is a framework of diagonally intersecting metal, concrete, or wooden beams that is used in the construction of buildings and roofs. [1]

The Shukhov tower is a hyperboloid structure (hyperbolic steel gridshell) consisting of a series of hyperboloid sections stacked on one another to approximate an overall conical shape. The tower has a diagrid structure, and its steel shell experiences minimum wind load (a significant design factor for high-rising buildings).
The world's first diagrid hyperboloid 37-meter water tower by Vladimir Shukhov, All-Russian Exposition, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, 1896 The world's first hyperboloid structure in Polibino, 2009. The Shukhov Tower in Polibino, designed in 1896 by Russian engineer and architect Vladimir Shukhov, is the world's first diagrid hyperboloid structure.
