Advanced Timber Structures: Architectural Designs and Digital Dimensioning

The wood laboratory of the EPF Lausanne is testing the production of origami structures, ribbed shells, fabric structures and curved panels under Professor Weinand using digital calculation and computer-aided processing methods. The research results are tested in prototypes. By exploring the hitherto unused potential of wood as a construction material, this book provides an exciting and inspiring outlook on a new generation of timber buildings.
