T.R.A.N.S.F.O.R.M Technology for Resource Acquisition and Nutrient Synthesis through Ferric Oxide Reduction on Mars

The project sets the limit in establishing a fully sustainable colony on Mars through Transforming the Martian minerals from a state to another to create the basic needs for human civilization to thrive on this Hostile planet.

Karamba analysis made to reduce the shell cross-section thickness. To do so we extracted the stress lines and turned them into beams

after doing the Karamba analysis we took over the stress lines to Rhino inside and turned them to structural framing the thickness of the beams depends on the stress levels. the more stress we have the thicker the beams are. we divided the beams into 4 different groups we can see them in the schedule above
