Abstract
Transformable structures in architecture can adapt their shape or function offering dynamic answers to modern problems, such as deployement for creating temporary spaces, responsiveness to climatic influences and change of use, in a society which embraces the concept of sustainable design. Depending on how the transformation is carried out, transformable structures can be deployable or demountable, as a kit-parts system. According to their structural system, deployable structures can also be classified in four main groups: spatial bar structures; foldable plate structures; tensegrity structures; and membrane structures. In this paper, a review on the deployable structures based on foldable plate structures will be done.
