grid beam is meant to last beyond the life of the things which are built with it. It's durable and reusable. This should affect our design and construction choices.

• wherever possible, design for disassembly.
  • favor nuts and bolts, zip ties, hook and catch, rope ties, and other reversible attachment methods. avoid glue, screws, nails, staples, tape, and other destructive attachment methods.
  • favor lengths of beam in even one-foot increments. this avoids continually re-cutting beams, resulting in a collection of nearly-useless one, two, and three hole beams.
• use tri-joints wherever possible. they greatly increase the strength and rigidity of grid beam structures.
