summary	Traditionally, Reciprocal Frame (RF) structures feature the use of linear materials such as rods, beams and bars. Their potential in varied curvature and doubly-curved forms illustrate ongoing advances in computation and fabrication. Flexible to using small available materials that span large areas, RF systems appeal as a popular research topic to demonstrate tectonic and engineering feats. However, RF using planar materials is a non-traditional application and is not widely explored in research. This paper discusses RF research projects that feature planar custom shapes with unique 3D tectonic capabilities. Their aesthetic properties and structural opportunities will be discussed and evaluated. The objective of this paper is to examine the use of planar materials and highlight the potential of irregular 3D reciprocal systems. The use of custom shapes in a reciprocal system and their unique growth morphologies presents a novel direction in the practice of reciprocal systems.

summary	Technological developments in construction always bring new expectations in terms of design possibilities. The use of digital tools both in design exploration and applied to explore new forms of computer controlled manufacture provide opportunities for the emergence of new tectonics. Because these transformations change our construction reality fast and with impacts never seen before, it is important that architectural education follows such change and prepares students for what will be their future really, making them capable to accept and incorporate the tectonic implications of digital tools and construction methods in the way they design. This paper shows a tutored approach to mass customized housing resorting to 3D printed parametric modular construction.Please write your abstract here by clicking this paragraph.

title	Digital morphogenesis and tectonics: an analysis of Peter Eisenman’s Aronoff Center
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 359-366
summary	The concept of architectural tectonics relates simultaneously to pragmatic and poetic aspects of the materiality, aiming the expression of these concerns in the result of the Form. Far from only a theoretical concerning, these design decisions affect how our society employs its natural and human resources. This work takes the Aronoff Center for Design and Arts (1988-1996), by Peter Eisenman, as a case study for a graphical analysis, dealing with the consequences of a free-form morphogenesis to its construction and investigating the tectonics of the contemporary architecture.

title	Spaceship Tectonics - Design Computation Pedagogy for Generative Sci-Fi Building Skins
source	Kepczynska-Walczak, A, Bialkowski, S (eds.), Computing for a better tomorrow - Proceedings of the 36th eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Lodz University of Technology, Lodz, Poland, 19-21 September 2018, pp. 357-366

summary	Sci-Fi architecture, both as digital or physical representations, despite their inherent intricacy, lack the spatial depth of a structured interior, material definition or program information. This discrepancy, combined with the plethora of available sci-fi motifs, inspired the development of an integrated teaching approach with the academic objective to utilize computational methods for analysis, reproduction and composition of generative building skins, and consequently architecture, which aims to be 'outside of this world' as a sci-fi design quality-enriched result of our reality. The proposed methodology is implemented at the Spaceship Architecture Design Studio at the University of Innsbruck. Its capacity to achieve a successful assimilation of design computation in the curriculum is subsequently assessed by the documentation and quantitative/qualitative evaluation of the designs developed during two academic years, in line with a generative facade articulation schema, without however undermining the rest of the virtues of tectonic spaces. The introduction of a theme like sci-fi where the design objective is not clearly defined, is examined in comparison to similar approaches, towards the corroboration of the pedagogical method proposed.

summary	This design research reimagines the architectural detail in a postdigital framework and proposes digital methods to work upon discrete tectonics. Drawing upon Marco Frascari's writing The Tell-the-Tale Detail, the study aims to reimagine tectonic thinking for focused attention after the digital turn. Today, computational tools are powerful enough to perform operations more similar to physical tools than in the earlier digital era. These tools create a "digital materiality," where architects can manipulate digital information in parallel and overlapping ways to physical corollaries. (Abrons and Fure, 2018) To date, work in this area has focused on materiality specifically. This project reinterprets tectonics using texture map editing and point cloud information, particularly reconceptualizing jointing using images. Smartphone-based 3D digital scanning was used to captured details from a series of Carlo Scarpa's influential works, isolating these details from their physical sites and focusing attention upon individual tectonic moments. As digital scans, these details problematize the rhetoric of smoothness and seamlessness prevalent in digital architecture as they are discretely construed loci yet composed of digital meshes. (Jones 2014) Once removed from their contexts, reconnecting the digital scans into compositions of "compound details" necessitated a series of new mechanisms for constructing and construing not native to the material world. Using Photoshop editing of texture-mapped images, digital texturing of meshes, and interpretation of the initial material constructions, new joints within and between these the digital scanned details were created to reframe the original detail for the post-digital.

title	Research pavilions: contributions to the advancement of digital technologies, tectonics and materials in architecture
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 708-713
summary	This paper presents partial results of a research dedicated to the architectural typology of temporary pavilions, focused in research pavilions developed by academic research groups. The relevance of these pavilions is evidenced for the development of new paradigms of design, as well as of the constructive possibilities offered by advanced technologies of digital manufacturing, like robotic arms. These innovative processes have been transported from the academy to the professional branch, but still in a timely application. However, they have already had a profound impact on the academic research institutions, adding a significant theoretical/ practical contribution to the contemporary architectural field.
