Abstract

Free form architecture with complex geometry are one of the most striking trends in contemporary Architecture and design, enriching the spatial and expressive diversity of Architecture. These shapes are also one of the major challenges for architects, engineers and the building industry, creating new challenges for manufacturer of building components, because of the difficulty of manufacturing double curvature shapes at reasonable prices and quality. CAM manufacturing processes have limitations, their stage of development is not the same of geometric manipulation, made through CAD tools, that constitutes a research field with high potential. The proposed technique is based on the manipulation of elastic textile membranes by arduino motors, the points of the surface are transferred to the textile membranes using the CAD 3D data. The precast components are assembled using the Brick Warp System which is an post-stressed constructing process, the combination of these systems produces a solid solution, that allows materialize structural morphogenesis principals.
