Towards a future of automatic reuse and reconfiguration
Improved productivity and a higher level of sustainability are modern day challenges faced by the building industry that are currently being and could further be solved by a higher degree of automation. Freeform architecture is still in its infancy but the demand for it is growing. Reusable building elements are a rarity in freeforms. This thesis aims for the implementation of a new node and beam system for increased reusability and for more automation in the construction of building facades.
This thesis introduces a novel reusable node and beam system for use in the automatic assembly of freeform architecture. By optimising input shapes, applying computational placement of the elements and generating instructions for robotic systems, the building sector can not only improve its productivity and reduce its emissions, it can furthermore revolutionise the stylistic nature of architecture and facilitate the fluid adaptation of new forms and functions. ...
