DIGITAL DESIGN AND FULL SCALE FABRICATION ‘18
Rapidly assembled bending-active structure
Efilena Baseta / Andrei Gheorghe
Research background
Active-bending is an efficient construction technique for temporary, free-form structures is which has been used since antiquity. This method exploits the elastic bending of thin elements in order to create curved forms.
The course will be based on a research developed within the university, which proposes an alternative active-bending system. A latter system embeds the stiffeners in the building components themselves, by inserting geometry constraints. Thus, an independent relation between the maximum curvature and the stiffness is achieved. The resulted system facilitates the erection and the reusability of temporary structures.
Brief
Given the above, the course will investigate the rapid construction of a 1:1 free-form temporary structure. The aim of the course is to combine physical and digital processes. As a result, the creation of the final structure will rely on initial draft paper models as well as computational design methods and digital fabrication techniques. Important parts of the workflow will be:
