summary |
Compression-based stacking (Figure 1) structures, including arches and cantilevers, have long been essential elements in architecture and engineering. However, their construction poses challenges, particularly when dealing with extreme cantilevers and arched spans. Traditional building methods often rely on glue or fasteners, which can be impractical or unsuitable for certain compression-based structures. Constructing such structures without support requires precise alignment and careful weight distribution. To address these challenges, holographic building techniques have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional methods (Lok, Samaniego, and Spencer, 2021). By projecting virtual geometry during the assembly process, these techniques enable greater precision in alignment and weight distribution, enhancing stability and structural integrity. This research explores the use of holographic building techniques to construct compression-based structures (Figure 2 through 5). Computational tools are employed to parameterize the mathematical problem and simulate the structures in a virtual environment, enabling testing and iteration of different design options (Figure 6 through 9) before physical construction. |
