| summary |
In this paper, we introduce a design-to-fabrication workflow to create topology optimised concrete components by clay printing a temporary mould and simultaneously casting concrete into it. Our fabrication approach addresses the United Nation's Sustainability Development Goal (SDG) 12 of reducing waste in construction by employing the phase changing properties of clay, allowing this natural resource to be broken down and reused for subsequent projects. We implemented our workflow in the design and fabrication of a resilient infrastructure that responds to SDG 9 - an urban furniture that braces large trees during high-speed typhoon winds and serving as a bench for locals to rest under the tree. This paper documents our workflow with considerations of its overall workability, material properties and fabrication efficiency. We showcase our final prototype and discuss the feasibility and challenges of this approach in fabricating complex freeform components on a large scale. |
