Interlocking Folded Plate - Integrated Mechanical Attachment for Structural Timber Panels

Yves Weinand, Christopher Werner Matthias Robeller, Andrea Stitic, Paul Mayencourt

Automatic joinery has become a common technique for the jointing of beams in timber framing and roofing. It has revived traditional, integrated joints such as mortise and tenon connections. Similarly, but only recently, the automatic fabri- cation of tradi ...

Parametric Materiality

Russell Alexander Loveridge

Sustainability issues are increasingly taking more prominent positions in the hierarchy of design decisions. The combination of linked digital analysis and parametric design has emerged as an integrated method of assimilating performative characteristics i ...

Curved Folded Plate Timber Structures

Yves Weinand, Hans Ulrich Buri, Ivo Stotz

This work investigates the development of a Curved Origami Prototype made with timber panels. In the last fifteen years the timber industry has developed new, large size, timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels and the possibility of mill ...

Extending graphic statics for user-controlled structural morphogenesis

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

The first geometrical definitions of any structure are of primary importance when considering pertinence and efficiency in structural design processes. Engineering history has taught us how graphic statics can be a very powerful tool since it allows the de ...

Origami - geometry of folded plate structures

Yves Weinand, Hans Ulrich Buri

This research proposes new methods to generate rapidly complex folded plate structures that can be built with cross laminated timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels as well as the possibility to mill them by Computer Numerically Controll ...

Design through an incremental approach: the Swiss experience

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

In Switzerland, the current code for structural concrete published in 2003 privileged an incremental approach for design of new members or for assessment of existing structures with respect to a number of topics (shear, buckling, reinforcement detailing th ...

Iterative geometric design for architecture

Ivo Stotz

This work investigates on computer aided integrated architectural design and production. The aim is to provide integral solutions for the design and the production of geometrically complex free-form architecture. Investigations on computer aided geometric ...

Multiscale modelling of urban climate

Adil Rasheed

Climate has a direct impact on cities' energy flows due to the space conditioning (heating, cooling) needs of the buildings accommodated. This impact may be reinforced due to climate change and to the (so called) urban heat island effect. The corresponding ...

Modelling techniques to capture the backbone envelope behaviour of coupling beams subjected to seismic loading

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Neven Kostic

Structural R/C cores are a popular and efficient choice as lateral-load resisting system in medium to tall buildings. The walls of the cores typically present large openings providing access to elevators placed within them. Shear induced by lateral forces ...
