| summary |
Wood as a construction material gained interest in the last decade because of its low carbon footprint and the continuous research of new design possibilities opened using computational and robotic means. The shaping of timber into non-standard shapes is challenging and industrially demanding. This paper showcases a method to computationally control the formation of curved wood elements suitable for construction purposes. The aim is to achieve wood bending and twisting through a technique that combines advanced kerfing with a controlled insertion of wedges. The research has been conducted through material testing, computational developments, and robotic prototyping to evaluate design control, fabrication accuracy, and structural potential for architectural applications. |
