  • The Parametric Façade Optimization in Architecture Through a Synthesis of Design, Analysis and Fabrication
    The Parametric Façade Optimization in Architecture through a Synthesis of Design, Analysis and Fabrication by Peter C. Graham A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Architecture Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Peter C. Graham 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Modular building systems that use only prefabricated parts, sometimes known as building “kits”, first emerged in the 1830s and 1840s in the form of glass and iron roof systems for urban transportation and distribution centers and multi-storey façade systems. Kit systems are still used widely today in the form of curtain wall assemblies for office and condominium towers, yet in all this time the formal flexibility of these systems (their ability to form complex shapes) has not increased greatly. This is in large part due to the fact that the systems still rely on mass-produced components. This lack of flexibility limits the degree to which these systems can be customized for particular contexts and optimized for such things as daylighting or energy efficiency. Digital design and fabrication tools now allow us to create highly flexible building façade systems that can be customized for different con- texts as well as optimized for particular performance objectives. This thesis develops a prototype for a flexible façade system using parametric modeling tools.

  • Parametric Modeling for Form-Based Planning in Dense Urban Environments
    sustainability Article Parametric Modeling for Form-Based Planning in Dense Urban Environments Yingyi Zhang 1 and Chang Liu 2,* 1 School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing 100044, China; [email protected] 2 Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, Tsinghua University, Shenzhen 518055, China * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-189-4308-1577 Received: 29 August 2019; Accepted: 10 October 2019; Published: 14 October 2019 Abstract: Parametric instruments are employed broadly across the building industry. The study of applying parametric techniques to sustainable form-based planning, however, remains insufficient. This paper therefore critically assesses parametric techniques for facilitating form-based planning in an urban environment. The analysis is to twofold: Can a parametric technique truly enhance the form-based planning process more effectively than existing planning processes? and By what means can form-based planning layouts derived from parametric techniques be appraised? Methodologies include a case study in Hong Kong, quantitative and qualitative analysis, and experimental modeling on parametric platforms. Results indicate that the urban forms can be visualized in real-time during planning processes with a parametric coding system. Existing planning processes do not benefit from real-time visualization, but these alone do not necessarily result in more rational planning layouts. Parametric techniques produce visual models effectively but are not a planning panacea. Findings include a criticism of parametric techniques and pertinent instruments in urban projects, as well as valuable insights for the study of complex form-based planning in dense urban socio-environments. Keywords: parametric modeling; form-based planning; simulation; dense urban environment 1.

  • Generative Design for Building Information Modelling 1 Introduction
    Generative Design for Building Information Modelling Bruno B. Ferreira Instituto Superior T´ecnico,Universidade de Lisboa [email protected] http://tecnico.ulisboa.pt/ Abstract. Generative Design (GD) is a programming-based approach for Architecture that is becoming increasingly popular amongst archi- tects. However, most Generative Design approaches were thought for traditional Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools and are not adequate for the recent Building Information Modelling (BIM) paradigm. This pa- per proposes a solution that extends Generative Design so that it can be used with BIM while preserving and taking advantage of BIM ideas. The solution will be evaluated by developing a connection between Revit, a well-known BIM tool, and Rosetta, a programming environment for GD, and by implementing the necessary programming language features that allows GD to be used in the context of BIM tool. Keywords: BIM; Revit; Racket; Programming Languages; Generative Design; Rosetta 1 Introduction Throughout the years, architects have used different tools to perform their job. In the beginning, they used simple ones like pen and paper, but as the scale and requisites of the buildings changed, the paper-based approach showed its limitations, such as the need to redraw an entire model to correct a mistake. With the advent of information technology, the computer proved to be a great aid for architects and this led to the development of a new and more powerful tool: Computer Aided Design (CAD). CAD applications increased the efficiency of the design activities and allowed architects to produce more accurate and precise drawings that could be more easily edited without the need of manually erasing and redrawing parts of the original design [1].

Master Thesis 494, Concrete Structures, June 2016 ISSN 1103-4297, ISRN KTH/BKN/EX–494–SE c Martin Wasberg and Daniel Wallin 2016 Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering Division of Concrete Structures Stockholm, Sweden, 2016 Abstract Architectural and structural design process are closely connected but traditionally done in two separate steps in the design process. This requires effective coordination between the two disciplines and without the right tools problems often arise. The thesis was done by support from structural engineers at Tyréns and in collaboration with a student from the department of architecture. The aim of the thesis was to investigate if the use of parametric design tools from both architects and structural engineers could be a way of making the design process more effective. This thesis also include test the structural plug-ins of the parametric design tools and compare them with the outputs from traditional structural software and hand calculations. The comparison was made for different cases followed by a collaboration project. The cases was targeting different structural features which in turn gave the knowledge needed to develop the collaboration project. The case studies consists of five cases where the first two gives an introduction to parametric modelling.

    Virtual Environments as Medium for Laypeople’s Communication and Collaboration in Urban Design A thesis submitted to the Wellington School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington by Shuva Chowdhury M. Arch (Mackintosh, GL, UK), M. Arch (BCN, Spain), B.Arch (DHK, BD) August 2020 PhD Candidate Shuva Chowdhury Wellington School of Architecture Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Architectural Tutor (Lecturer) Southern Institute of Technology Invercargill, New Zealand [email protected] Primary Supervisor Prof Marc Aurel Schnabel Wellington School of Architecture Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Secondary Supervisor Dr Rebecca Kiddle Wellington School of Architecture Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] Abstract The distance between urban design processes and outcomes and their communication to stakeholders and citizens are often significant. Urban designers use a variety of tools to bridge this gap. Each tool often places high demands on the audience, and each through inherent characteristics and affordances, introduces possible failures to understand the design ideas, thus imposing a divergence between the ideas, their communication and the understandings. Urban design is a hugely complex activity influenced by numerous factors. The design exploration process may follow established design traditions. In all instances, the medium in which the exploration takes place affects the understanding by laypeople. Design tools are chosen, in part, to facilitate the design process. Most urban design community engagement does not use Virtual Environments (VE) as a means of communication and participation in the early stage of the design generation.

  • Parametric Craft Techniques Design Methodology for Building on Embodied Cultural Knowledge
    PARAMETRIC CRAFT TECHNIQUES DESIGN METHODOLOGY FOR BUILDING ON EMBODIED CULTURAL KNOWLEDGE Lisa Marks Berea College [email protected] 1. CRAFTS AND DESIGN; A FORK IN THE ROAD Throughout history and across the world, crafts have drawn inspiration from the beauty of nature and mathematics. Complex, algorithmic patterns can be seen across disciplines from Islamic geometric tiles to Nicaraguan pottery to the architectural forms of Gaudi. While these natural, mathematical forms have inspired embodied skills in countless unique cultures, many of these crafts face extinction as globalization and digital prototyping take our focus away from the handcrafts that have been passed down through the generations. Simultaneously, designers are embracing algorithmic and generative designs across disciplines. Starting with architecture and now progressing into industrial design, parametric tools are making visual scripting accessible to all, creating a barrage of visually noisy artifacts with little design basis as we learn what these tools are truly capable of. This raises the question: can design use modern, advanced parametrics that allow direct engagement with mathematics to highlight the many skill-based crafts that are in danger of fading away? It is the position of this paper that the celebration of handcraft and ability to merge it with future-facing, generative tools can create greater awareness and connoisseurship, increasing the value placed on historical craft and knowledge embodied in parametric designs. 2. CAD AND CRAFT With the advent of CAD (computer-aided design) programs, starting with Sutherlands Sketchpad in 1963, modeling and representing ideas digitally has become an invaluable tool for design across the board. The invention of AutoCAD in 1982, for example, meant that, instead of redrawing a blueprint to change a feature, one could simply move it in the program and re-export it.
