why is the triangle the strongest geometric shape
The triangle is the strongest geometric shape, as it holds its shape and has a base which is very strong.The triangle is common in all sorts of building supports and trusses.n octet-truss is the strongest structure for cantilevering because of the strength of the triangle However if its 'hardness' you're looking for, or resistance to purely compression, a tessellation of hexagons is your strongest shape, and therefore perhapse an irregular hexagon is your second strongest.
