AODI MUSEUM, YILAN Zaha Hadid Architects Lead Dao Technology and Engineering Introduction
This project has collobrated with clients, architect and consultants to achieve a cohesive integrated design. Overall the geometry has brought to us a tough challenge, nothing is followed the Cartesian Grid besides the elevator core. Therefor, an advanced computer aided sofware and techinques are applied onto it. The outer FRC skin has been rationalized to custom mold. The structure center-lines have precisely placed for engineering caculation.

KAOHSIUNG PORT TERMINAL, KAOHSIUNG Reiser + Umemoto Lead Dao Technology and Engineering Introduction
The port terminal is an experiment of “dynamic 3-dimensional urbanism” which amplifies the flow of pedestrian traffic through an elevated and activated boardwalk which runs continuously along the water. Meanwhile, beneath this level of public promenade, cruise and ferry functions are located just below. In this way, the layers create a dense range of programs, yet separating the cruises and ferries help maintain secure areas for departing/arriving passengers. Structurally, the building’s skin is a system of nested, long-span shells. The shells are composed of an underlying steel pipe space frame which is sandwiched by cladding panels to create a useable cavity space. “Overall an experience of directed yet funactionally separated flows will lend an aura of energy to the point terminal space,” explained the architects. The goal is to find a paneling solution for a given freeform design that achieves prescribed quality requirements, while minimizing production cost and respecting application-specific constraints. The quality of the paneling is mainly determined by the geometric closeness to the input surface, the positional and normal continuity between neighboring panels, and the fairness of corresponing panel boundary curves.
Facade panelization The overall challenge of the project was to keep the quality and design deviations inside some user-given bounds. Since the pattern has irregular spacing at many intervals, using all flat panels along these division results in a zippering effect at the curves. This allows the metal screen to be curved in one direction with longer openings, while the glazing units behind are planar and also reduced in scale. The result would be two different details for the connection between glazing units. above image indicating the panel variation which showing in black (planar), yellow(double curved), red(single curved)

WEI-WU-YING CENTER FOR THE ARTS, KAOHSIUNG Mecanoo Architecten Lead Dao Technology and Engineering Introduction
Mecanoo’s Wei-Wu-Ying Center for the Arts has broken ground in Kaohsiung with a festive public celebration hosted by President Ma Ying-jeou and attended by Architect Francine Houben. The new cultural complex will be the largest in Asia at 141,000 sqm, featuring the most modern in theatre technology, housing a concert hall with 2000 seats, an opera house with 2250 seats, a playhouse with 1250 seats, a recital hall with 500 seats, a public library and studios for music and dance. The great roof provides shade and protection from Taiwan’s tropical climate and forms an informal public space where city residents can stroll, practice Tai Chi, meditate or just relax. Inspired by ancient Greek theatre, an outdoor seating area on the roof was created, just at the point where the roof dips to the ground. The surrounding park in turn becomes an informal stage. The park features light slopes, valleys and water pools creating intimate public spaces. Lead Dao implemented a integrated 3D-model of the whole building to coordinate all the subsequent planning steps of the numerous trades involved. Numbers of plans and sections were generated from the master model for futher development. The master model has played a huge role in minimizing coordination errors with architects and structural engineers.

NATIONAL TAICHUNG DIGITAL LIBRARY, TAICHUNG J.J. Pan and Partners Lead Dao Technology and Engineering Introduction
“J.J.Pan and Partners present their design for the National Taichung Digital Library, a symbol of the constant stream of knowledge to which the digital age has exposed us. The theme of the architecture is one of a boundless leisure spot of creativity and the dynamic flow of information. The building’s freeform skin features the theme of horizontal flows that represent both the foundation of the city’s irrigated waterway and the flow of information in digital media. A composite wall system with integrated insulation was adopted to shape the folded surface the represents the central Taiwan Rivers. Curved planes and tree trunk-shaped columns constitute the internal spatiality of the reading room.” As the construction world continues to move towards digital and cloud computing, Lead Dao leads the way with Building Information Modeling frameworks, so that all participants are aware every stage of construction. The building facade was divided into several complex components, and to keep the entire project organized required a strong building information management. Drawings from the architect were digitally defined and refined into a working model which served to involve every aspect of its construction.
above and right a full size mock-up of the sto cladding system affords futher development and detailed evaulation of the proposed design in both technological and aesthetic terms.

complex curtain wall system cladding this undulating building skin involved an intense exploration of 2D and 3D curtain wall faรงade systems in order to emphasize the overall nautical theme of the project and add visual complexity and unique identity to the project. Curtain wall explorations comprised from relatively simple flat rectilinear 2D solutions to complex 3D projected faceted patterns to form unitized modules arrayed over the curved faรงade.
