INTEGRATING MATERIAL PERFORMANCE
Tag
Data management and a workpiece model
Data management issues and the development of a flexible workpiece model to cross-reference and contain fabrication data for individual glulam components.
CITAstudio Glulam Workshop: September 5-16
A workshop for CITAstudio Masters students to explore the design and fabrication of five speculative glulam blank types, and to move through the design-to-production chain from schematic design to machining connection details.
ESR02 – INTEGRATING MATERIAL PERFORMANCE
Industrial Partners: Blumer Lehmann, White. The ability to simulate material performance, parametrising and calculating material properties as design drivers present new perspectives in structural and material thinking. By understanding materials not as static or inanimate, but as engaged by complex behaviours, material performance is regarded as one of the richest sources of innovation. New structural paradigms are emerging that integrate material performance such as active bending.
