| summary |
This paper presents a construction strategy for topologically interlocking mycelium composites as replaceable structural modules that could be periodically replaced, extending the lifespan while varying the architecture. Concepts of discrete fabrication would drive the methodology. The research will be carried out in two scales; (a) at the scale of the part such as foundation, column, beam, joint, and floor slab component, which would be studied to form a set of interlocking geometry that allow for easy installation and de-installation process; and (b) an investigation on aggregating whole, whereby elements are aggregated using Wasp to generate bays of walls, flooring and cantilever roof. The elements are to be aggregated to the point of redundancy, which would support replacement of components by providing standby structural system. This will integrate repair and recondition processes as part of the building life cycle. |
