Flexible Formwork: A Textile-Centric Approach: Investigating pattern influence on the deformation behavior of weft-knitted textiles under hydrostatic loading

Traditional methods of building with concrete are materially wasteful, highly polluting, and often structurally inefficient. The vast global consumption of concrete plays a large role in the construction industry’s negative effects on the environment, necessitating a significant change in the way we design and build with concrete. The fluid...

Double curved precast load bearing concrete elements

The construction of free form building stagnated, due to the high construction cost of it. Double curved surfaces are only applied at projects with a high profile and projects above average budget during years. The problem with double curved surfaces is mainly the formwork. The present days used techniques to construct these formworks are...
