This procedure is known as panelization. Glass is possibly one of the most difficult material to use for panelization. There are concurrent necessities in this practice:. The solution of this problem is not obvious and several papers have been written on that subject see references at the bottom. Every architecture has its own story and requirements, thus requiring specific adaptation of general concepts such as those presented in the above mentioned papers.

In this project panelization has followed two steps:. Even if shape is set, one can attempt to reduce average curvatures by slightly moving the surface control points, thus obtaining an optimized shape very close to the initial one. To do so, a principle of fictitious energy minimization was used:. Weight coefficients and were used.

In blue are shown panel curvature before optimization, whilst in red they are shown after that. Curvature of the molds used with the number of panels relative to each one. The reduction of the amount of molds is done as follows. First of all, for each panel the two main curvatures are calculated in the middle point. Then, the two lists of main curvature found are merged and divided in sub-lists, each one having the higher curvature value equal to 1.

To each sub-list the same mold curvature was assigned, equal to the average curvature in the set. At the end of this procedure, each panel was assigned to a group where every component had the same constant curvature. Then, panels having i. In the following figures the types of molds used are shown and the number of panels they are used for. All the drawings, data, analysis results, are assembled and automatically added to report and graphical visualization.

This is crucial to have a clear view on the project phase and to share it with all the professionals working on it. Here optimality means that the material needed for the structure is minimal under given constraints. We approach this problem by studying a discrete and a continuous version of it simultaneously, switching back and forth between trusses and truss-like continua. It has interesting connections to diffrential geometry and discrete differential geometry, in particular to surfaces which minimize a total absolute curvature functional.

We also demonstrate how to employ the guided projection method invented recently to incorporate optimization in interactive computational design. In his talk, Eike Schling will present a variety of architectural studies which aim to construct gridshells from repetitive parts. For this purpose, he introduces a theoretical framework that enables a systematic design and an analysis of the repetitive quality of doubly curved grid structures.

The key is to consider both geometric as well as constructive criteria to allow for a repetitive fabrication of parts. Eikes studies not only reveal fundamental principles and dependencies within repetitive design, but also show the great potential and aesthetics of such structures. A novel design method — asymptotic networks on minimal surfaces — allows for the construction of strained gridshells from straight lamellas and orthogonal nodes.

Construction of a prototypical structure, the Asymptotic Gridshell, was completed in Munich in Throughout history, master builders have discovered expressive forms through the constraints of economy, efficiency and elegance. There is much to learn from the structural principles they developed. Novel structural design tools that extend traditional graphical methods to three dimensions allow designers to discover a vast range of possible shell forms.

Workshop: Advances in Architectural Geometry

By better understanding the flow of forces in three dimensions, excess material can be eliminated, natural resources conserved, and humble materials like earth and stone reimagined. The mainstream approaches in digital geometry processing employ triangular simplicial meshes, discretize differential quantities using finite-element function spaces, and define transformations with piecewise-affine maps.

I will describe how discrete Moebius geometry provides a novel alternative to these paradigms, by using circles as its basic elements, and describing quantities like conformality and regularity through the invariants of Moebius geometry.

AAG has become a reference both in research and in practice and is supported by the direct participation of the most renowned architectural design and engineering offices along with research laboratories. Tell us if something is incorrect. Similarly, but only recently, the automatic fabrication of traditional cabinetmaking joints has been introduced for the assembly of timber panel shell structures. You are commenting using your Twitter account. This paper builds on recent progress in computing with geometric constraints, which is particularly relevant to architectural geometry. In this paper, we propose the use of dovetail joints without adhesive bonding, on the case study of a timber folded plate structure.

This paradigm allows to develop various capabilities, such as polygonal non-triangular mesh conformal deformations and multi-resolution design of unconventional mesh patterns with spherical precision. The applications for discrete Moebius geometry processing are within graphics, architectural geometry, and shape design.
