Online workshop
Circular Economy in Structural Design
with parametric engineering tools (Karamba3d)
Tutored by Klaas de Rycke, Georgia Margariti, Sandie Fenton, Marie Paschke, Ludovic Regnault (Bollinger+Grohmann)
CONTEXT
This workshop is part of the workshop series that Volumes is organizing within the framework of the Driven initiative.
Driven by Volumes is an incubation program aiming to embed Advanced Computational Design Strategies in Early Stage Entrepreneurship for Circular Economy.
The program is developed within the EU H2020 funded project Reflow.
WORKSHOP BRIEF
With focus on timber structures, the workshop will incorporate carbon footprint evaluation and circular economy into a structural design workflow. Through the combined use of parametric tools for structural design, such as Karamba 3D, and for optimization, such as Octopus, comparative strategies will be used in order to mediate between purely structural and environmental criteria, thus suggesting a more holistic design process.
TOPICS AND CONTENTS
- Context, precedents and applications of circular economy
- Recycled elements in the building industry
- Structural evaluation
- Parametric engineering tools
- Multi-dimensional optimization
- Pavilion design
