Open Lecture TU Graz : Adaptive structures and material performance
This week Efilena Baseta visited TU Graz as a jury member of the midterm presentation of the studio ”Break it till you Make it” led by Urs Hirschberg. The students focus on experimenting on various materialities of wood with the final goal of building an 1:1 info point. After the reviews...
Blumer Lehmann secondment
The last months I have been working on scaling up the micro-scalar (1 dm) dynamic behavior of wood veneer into macroscalar dynamic wooden structures (10m) exploring controlled bending-active systems.
From the 6th till the 18th of November I conducted my secondment in Blumer Lehman in...

Fabricating Complexity in Concrete with #iceformwork
ESR9- SIMULATING CONCRETE FORMWORK
AUTHOR: VASILY SITNIKOV
In order to minimize the amount of cement involved in concrete constructions, the concrete industry today chooses to reduce the share of cement in the total mass of concrete. This approach leads to lower mechanical properties of...
