Abstract

In all times of history, engineers and architects have searched for opportunities to develop adaptive structures, buildings and building parts, which are equipped for adjusting to ever-changing requirements and conditions. The reasons behind this interest relate to the growing need for functional/ spatial flexibility, sustainability and extended capabilities of structural performance. Recent advancements in construction technology, robotics, architectural computing and material science have increased the interest for these structures/ systems; and allowed us to develop examples that are more advanced. This paper aims to introduce the state of art contemporary adaptive systems in architecture and structural engineering; and presents a future perspective for these systems and their potential applications in the construction industry.
