  7. Abstract:
  8. Building fast and economic space station requires systematic approach toward their design. This research serves to investigate such idea based on Bionic approach. Based on lengthy observations on plant growth we have been able to propose different types of polyhedrons which could help expedite the construction procedure. Different case studies show that how the objectives could be achieved. There are two differences in growth of the modern structures in space and plants. The first is inexistence of producer near the points of growth and Second difference is inexistence of fixed lines for transporting mass. The first difference is not solvable with today's technologies but for second difference, there is a solution. Research shows that the polyhedrons are suitable for implementation of these lines. Also, these elements can lead to the most automation via the scenarios of the propagation in space buildings.
