contents We prove that the simplicial complex $Δ_{\mathcal{C}_n,2}$ is pure and a weak pseudomanifold of dimension $2(n-1)$, where $Δ_{\mathcal{C}_n,2}$ is the simplicial complex associated with $2$-triangulations on the half-cylinder with $n$ marked points. This result generalizes the work of Vincent Pilaud and Francisco Santos for polygons and resolves a conjecture of Mathias Lepoutre and Vincent Pilaud for $k=2$. To achieve this, we show that $2$-triangulations on the half-cylinder decompose as complexes of star polygons, and that $2$-triangulations on the half-cylinder are in bijection with $2$-triangulations on the $4n$-gon invariant under rotation by $π/2$ radians. Building on work by Vincent Pilaud and Christian Stump, we also introduce chevron pipe dreams, a new combinatorial model that more naturally captures the symmetries of $k$-triangulations.
