summary |
This paper documents the development of our proposed fabrication strategy to manufacture doubly-curved Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) cladding panels for facade components or internal walls. It uses a customised glass fibre knitted textile preform which is edge-shaped and sprayed with polyester resin to become a solidified composite panel. In this instance, we investigate the design of the textile preform and the development of an adjustable edge-shaping mechanism employed in this curved composite panel fabrication. We then test the shaping mechanism through the fabrication of several doubly-curved GFRP panels and compare their geometries to their respective digital models. |
