2.1 ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION

AMiCo focuses on developing an innovative, fully automated digital process chain from design to the fabrication of geometrically unique steel node connectors for single-layer framework applications in facade and roof constructions. The goal is to develop a parameter-based software pipeline capable of generating node connectors while taking into account constructive, static and fabrication-related boundary conditions.


The core of the project is the algorithm-based design process of the node connector elements, which must meet all structural, technical and aesthetic requirements. Based on an input Nurbs surface, the script generates the necessary design and fabrication data within seconds.
