Consider the large central tube to be divided into 3 arcs, 1/3rd the circumference each, and, in a sense, to be equivalent to 3 of the smaller tubes.
A module consists of 2 of the smaller tubes, with the 3rd tube the central 1/3rd.
Each pair of tubes has a zigzag bent metal tube welded between them, for a total of 3 zigzag tubes.
Place 3 modules in a hexagon arrangement, rejoining the center1/3 arc sections, and add 3 more zigzag tubes between adjoining modules.
Instead, one module, with a 4th zigzag tube hanging to one side at the hex angle, can be circular arrayed with 3 copies.

Engineering analysis of strength is something else.
