The triangle is the strongest polygon in construction. Pressure on one angle is absorbed by the opposing side with no intervening angles that can expand or contract. Other polygons have intervening angles that are prone to change, causing the structure to bend in undesired ways. This practice of using multiple triangles in series is known as "tressling."
