| summary |
This paper pilots a structural application for nonlinear wood through the development of a custom parametric workflow in which cross sections of logs are digitally imaged, analyzed, and manipulated, then physically manufactured into interlocking structural units. The project addresses resource scarcity and embodied carbon by defining a use for nonlinear wood, various species of which are found across the globe but are limited in use due to the constraints of conventional sawmilling. |
