Wood products are suited to almost all new-build and renovation construction. Wood structures can be used in different applications in buildings, be they tall tower blocks, large halls or bridges. In addition to structures, common uses for wood products are windows and doors, interior decoration and furniture. Building standards regulating the use of wood vary … Lue lisää "Typical structural systems"
This mixed used project focuses on a concept that reflects on the nature of human condition and the lived urban experience. The objective of design is to explode the capacities of CLT as a main structural system, while creating a dynamic yet modular façade with parametric design software. The projec
Architects Construct Village of 14 Wooden Structures at Hello Wood 2016
Students and architects constructed a wooden “village” at Hello Wood’s Project Village 2016! http://www.archdaily.com/793672/architects-construct-village-of-14-wooden-structures-at-hello-wood-2016
Instead of forcing wood into curved shapes using energy-intensive mechanical methods, Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) components are "self-shaping" in a manner that embraces wood's intrinsic property to warp when dried. This shift in design thinking explores new computational simulations to more accurately predict how wood will shrink and change shape naturally. | Institute for Computational Design and Construction and Institute for Building Structures and Structural Design (ITKE)
Hereford College of Art Hub With a strong sustainability agenda, the structure is formed of glu-lam and mass-timber and the space is naturally ventilated and day-lit.
Additive Robotic Fabrication of Complex Timber Structures
"...This research project aims at a radically advanced application of timber as a structural material in particular consideration of economic and ecologic criteria. In this respect, the project researches a highly integrated digital design and fabrication process for timber. It examines the next logical step in timber prefabrication by introducing robotic assembly instead of traditional manual joining or automation of parts." | Gramazio Kohler Research | Zurich, Switzerland | 2012-2017
