Null designs form a vector space and there are only finite number of minimal null designs(up to scalar multiple), hence it is natural to look at the convex polytopes of minimal null designs. For example, when t = 0, k = 1, the convex polytope of minimal null designs is the polytope of roofs of type An. In this article, we look at the convex polytopes of minimal null designs and find many general properties on the vertices, edges, dimension, and some structural properties that might help to understand the structure of polytopes for big n, t through the structure of smaller n, t.
