Workshop: Circular Economy in Structural Design with parametric engineering tools (Karamba3D) - January 11-15, 2021
Circular Economy in Structural Design with Parametric Engineering Tools (Karamba3D)
January 11-15, 2021
The workshop will incorporate carbon footprint evaluation and circular economy into a structural design workflow with a focus on timber structures. Through the combined use of parametric tools for structural design such as Karamba3D, and optimization tools such as Octopus, comparative strategies will be used to mediate between purely structural and environmental criteria, suggesting a more holistic design process.
In the context of the climate emergency, architects and engineers try to reduce the environmental impact of structures through a shift in their design process. The use of recycled material plays a major role in this approach. One of the central questions is how can we design sustainable and smart structures by intelligently using recycled elements. Many factors such as the history of the elements, their condition, or their location influence the design, the carbon footprint, and the price. Parametric structural design tools, coupled with multi-dimensional optimization methods, can help to explore the design space and evaluate designs concerning those criteria.
The workshop will focus on principles of recycled materials in the building industry, coupled with an introduction to parametric structural design and optimization tools. The participants will work during the whole week on the design of a pavilion by applying the learned principles and using an available database of existing recycled timber elements. Lectures of professionals and researchers working in the field of circular economy in architecture and construction supplement the workshop.
Workshops organizers and tutors, in a joint effort with the Reflow Parisian consortium (including Fab City Grand Paris, the City Council of Paris, and the association Arslonga), aim to build the pavilion designed during the workshop in the spring of 2021 with the participation of the workshop participants.

Timber WH-Arena and Timber Tower in Vienna
Nicolas Sterling from Sterling Presser Architects + Engineers has been kind enough to share one of his latest project done in Rhino/Grasshopper.
The Timber WH ARENA and Timber Tower design proposal for the WH-Arena competition in Vienna has made it to the second round.
The 20,000-seat WH-Arena timber concept is rooted
in nature in symbiosis with its environment. The project vision is to create a
new sustainable landmark for a large-scale arena that performs at all levels of
efficiency and flexibility. The dialogue
between the arena, the side buildings, and the public space creates a unique combination. The architectural objects play as much role as the outer space they generate. The timber structural
moiré skin is acting as the tree skin. The building maximizes natural, beautiful, and warm materials that connect us with nature and envisions a sustainable future.
The arena roof, the shape of a shallow saddle, consists of a triangular grillage of timber
strips structure as a Gridnet, a hybrid of a gridshell and a cablenet. This
composite construction, which optimizes the use of material while minimizing
embodied energy, while using a renewably sourced timber, creates a warm feel to the space with an enhanced acoustic performance. The roof spans about 160 m
lengthwise and about 130 m crosswise. The roof has photovoltaic panels on its
upper side and an uninterrupted continuously closed acoustic ceiling on its
underside, which is partially translucent to give the interior of the arena a
striking design effect.
The integrated architecture and facade
structure follows a subtle distribution to create an optical effect as one moves around the building. The roof, the façade elements, and the timber
gridshell are a unique parametric model to balance
structural performance and aesthetic and visual effect.
The project is great teamwork in collaboration
with:
- Thornton Tomasetti: Structure, facades, and acoustic
- A24 Landschaft: Landscape
- Transsolar: Energy, sustainability, environment design, MEP
- Kunz: Fire engineering
- Woo Architects: Arena experts
- Yann Kersalé. Lighting artist
- Ateliers de L’Éclairage: Lighting designer/engineers

ShapeDiver now supports Rhino 7!
After a big development push and a few weeks of coordinating, ShapeDiver is happy to launch its brand new Rhino 7 system (almost) in time!
Rhino 7 is packed with new features, and several of them come with brand new Grasshopper components that are compatible with the ShapeDiver Rhino 7 system. If you are excited about the new organic modeling possibilities offered by the SubD feature, try out the new SubD components in Grasshopper! Need to clean up or smooth some nasty meshes? The QuadRemesh component is there for you, producing clean quad meshes that will also help with the rendering performance in the ShapeDiver viewer.
At the moment, Rhino 7 is running on a brand new test system. The testing phase will extend until the release of the new platform in Spring 2021. If you want to test it right now, use the contact form on their website and request your account to be switched to the new Rhino 7 system.

The Architecture Machine Exhibition
For the first time in German-speaking countries, the Architekturmuseum der TUM presents a large-scale exhibition on the computer's influence on architecture. Covering from the 1950s to the present, the show recounts this fascinating history in four chapters which sum up key developments of the so-called digital revolution: The computer as a drawing machine, the computer as a design tool, the computer as a medium for storytelling, and the computer as an interactive platform. The fundamental question that guided the two-year research project is simple: Has the computer changed architecture, and if so, how?
