| Elective course (4KP) |
|
The elective course "Complex Timber Structures" dealt with the design and fabrication of spatial structures of beam shaped wooden elements. The students analysed traditional and contemporary timber systems and reinterpreted them using digital tools. The digital fabrication technology and the resulting opportunities and constraints formed the basis for the design of the students. The students built their designs on a model scale with small robots using specially developed programming tools. Integration of the robot-building process constraints such as length, angle constraints of the components and the assembly sequence of the structures defined in a significant manner the specific student design solutions.
