  • Patent number: 5946865
    Abstract: An above-surface topple-able and self-righting dynamic building support structure having an external loadbearing shell including a bottom base and upwardly and outwardly sloping curved sidewalls extending from a periphery of the base to an upper portion. The bottom base enables the building support structure to be supported on a substantially planar surface in a datum state of stable equilibrium in which the bottom base is in loadbearing contact with same. The sidewalls define a suitable curvature for enabling the building support structure to roll reversibly about a horizontal axis over the surface while at least a portion of the sidewalls is in loadbearing contact with the surface. The dynamic building support structure also comprises self-righting means capable of generating a net moment in a direction opposed to the direction of rolling of the building support structure in the absence of external forces.
