Thesis:

Origami funicular shell: 01_funicular shell form finding

Abstract

1. Introduction

This thesis is an exploration through how to design a funicular shell with an origami structure. It goes from the basic vault simulation to how an origami Miura Ori design is applied on it and its structural behavior. In every step of the process, a structural analysis is done to compare the results of every design, as the point of it, is to find the best design strategy and at the end, if having an origami design in a funicular shell is an optimal design: easier to build, less material, thinner materials. This exploration is divided in two steps: the form finding of a funicular shell design and the application of folded design strategies like origami.

This exploration tries to be the combination of some topics explored in class during the master through some case studies. These main topics would be Funicular Shells and Origami architecture. Both topics were studied in class, but they could have been explored more deeply and corrected to achieve some better goals. They were two topics that left some unanswered questions… So the purpose of this work is to get an efficient design combining these technics, and try to see how they combine together and if it’s a good idea to do so.

2. Background

Author: Marco Bercero, Adrià Year: 2017 Description: How the initial mesh affect the form finding simulation of funicular shells

The architect Tal Friedman’s ‘fold finding’ pavilion is a self-supporting folded architectural work that utilizes traditional origami techniques (both aesthetic and structural) to avoid the need of any sub-structure. composed in its entirety using only eight 4mm thick alucobond panels, friedman

created algorithms necessary to take advantage of the material’s innate surface rigidity. the result is an ultra thin shell, from which nothing can be added or subtracted, that uses surface tension as its structural foundation.

Foster’s Pavilion in Venice. This Pavilion is a prototype though to be next to another in a chain, so it’s a form finding proces with the perimeter fixed. Moreover, as it is a moduled building, the formwork can be used again, for all the modules.

3. Funicular Shell Form Finding (FSFF) 0. The form finding process of a funicular shell with grasshopper-Kangaroo2 seems pretty logical and easy. It is based on making a 2D mesh inside a desired perimeter and applying just vertical forces while fixing the support points and the lengths of the mesh’s edges.

Origami funicular shell: 02_Folding a funicular shell Author: Marco Bercero, AdriĂ

0. As seen in â&#x20AC;&#x153;first hypothesis designâ&#x20AC;?, to apply an origami definition we need regular quad-mesh, therefore now that we have a funicular shell that works as it should, it is time to re-mesh it. Using this vault as a mesh to create the guide lines to create the quad-mesh or surface where the origami definition will be applied. 1. Comparing the Utilization results of the folded designs and the simple vault. a) Is the Quad-mesh Vault, remeshed. b) Is applying a folded desing where all edges have the same length. c-d) are origami patterns. e) Miura Pattern with fold that make all the U edges to have the same length. f) Miura pattern optimazed following structural necessities. 8%

6. Conclusions

In conclusion, it has been proven that an origami Yoshimura design is a good solution to design a funicular shell, not only it stands against gravity, but it increases its resistance to wind too. The Origami design apart from being better structurally, the Yoshimura design, is based on thin flat triangular panels, so from wood or steel sheets, triangles can just be cut and assembled, easy and fast, without effort or wasting material, even as a base, then the panels can be re-used or cut again.

Furthermore, simulating the behaviour computer wise, differences concerning the grid used appeared.

First experiments of Frei Otto and Heinz Isler consisted on the hanging of a cloth or chain system, getting a full tensile system, meaning that once turned upside down it turns into a full compression structure.

3. Form generation

More recently these experiments have been done digitally, with software such us Kangaroo, Catia or Karamba. In the drawings we can see the process from a bare mesh to a final optimised structure.

4. Tech implementation

Starting with a mesh, anchors or fixed points are applied together with the points that will move up.

We define several tensors which define the valleys and montains for the final shape.

2. Increasing the number of pickpoints, which resulted to be the smoothest. Also we jumped to the conclusion that crosswise lines collide with the grid resulting on an unoptimised shape.

To make the apertures on the vault, we followed the procedure below: 1. Split the mesh through the aperture planes and weld it with the aperture points separeted.

2. Assign different strenghts to the edges. In the graphics above, represent the interpretation of the forces given in the previous operations, in order to get a clearer or better ordered structure, and also an optimization of the material.

6. Conclusions Based on the classical structure a funicular shell is (also very characteristic through Catalan architecture), the purpouse was to create a new modern structure out of the main characteristic of these buildings, the pure compression efforts. After our first approach with continuous meshes, we realised that we could add some new qualities to these kind of buildings as using a beam structure to get the same efforts also we found out that we could add apertures without getting important tensiles.

2. Background

The project consists on the research1of the behavior of forces on funicular shells. Starting with the use of a simple shape such a self loaded square and observing its deformation depending on the way its hung, 1 whether we use pickpoints or catenaries. Furthermore, simulating the behaviour computer wise, differences concerning the grid used appeared.

Researching on different topics, like2cable nets and fractals, we found that the research of new ways of designing funiculars was inexistent. Thus we intended to get to something new or different to those well known 2 examples, like Heinz Islerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

Funicular Shell (study + Project) Author: Marco Bercero, Adrià Casanueva Ovies, Maria Edel Year: 2017 Description: How to simulate a Funicular shell + Prjecting one with cuts

Plan

The project proposed consists on a wood work lab. For its construction we used a shell composed by a wood structure, as a metaphore for the work which is going to be developed inside, also we used curtain walls to close the space without claiming for attention and finally a white aluminum skin, to protect the structure behind, as well as the machinery inside. Geometrically we divided the shell into three parts, meaning it has eight supports. In between the three different parts the enclosure as well as spaces needed (like office,storage). On the other hand we have a third of the structure unclosed, so that the workers can work on some pieces outside, or use it as an exhibition area.

Design based on geodesic curves (Atsushi Imai Memorial Gymnasium by Shigeru Ban) Author: Marco Bercero, Adrià Saini, Kritica

Abstract

1. Introduction

2. Background

The Aim is to analyse the principles and ideology behind geodesic forms, hence bringing out its importance and see how it can be used to design a building efficiently. The Scope Of Study is to understand and parametrise the design systems of the given case study building and then adapt it to an arbitrary toroidal surface. The Hypothesis states that “By achieving single panel curvature placed parallelly at equal distance to each other, the principles of geodesics can be adapted to any arbitrary shape”. But in case of toroidal surface, the hypothesis turns out to be false, therefore modifications are made to achieve to the nearest result.

The ellipsoid is formed of geodesics with single curvature and is a part of spindle torus section. The Building is a Space frame structure of multi skinned elliptical Grid Dome (20X28M) (6M high) made using LSL (laminated strand member), supported by 25 truss arches along minor axis (which forms the dome) & virendeel arches along major axis (which acts as lattice members). LSL act as primary structural material with only a minimal use of steel structure for piping. Translucent polycarbonate roof panels used to admit natural light.

Conclusions it has to be a regular surface for geodesics to work. with regular surface, construction strategy works perfectly. the same strategy cannot be applied in any arbitrary surface because geodesics wont behave in the similar way and construction techniques needs modifications and geodesics have to be regular.
