3D Printed Architecture
6
3D printing in Architecture promises to be the next leap in building technology. Challenging the current building methods and demonstrating a future development that will both save time, money and create a greater efficiency of natural resources. Yet many hurdles exist towards making this a common building practice. They include the materiality and strength of the printed structure, the strength and mixture of the printed concrete, and the characteristics and limitations of the on-site 3D printer. This thesis proposes to explore the structure needed to achieve an unsupported structure as well as what forms would look like with this process of construction.

Structure Development Model 1 was a study in order to understand what the limitations and challenges associated with 3D printing without support material.
Model 2 takes what was learned from Model 1 and implements it on the a structural wall and floor concept. The idea of implementation on a traditional building and the ability to print the floors along with the walls Model 3 takes a different approach at
the structure and focuses on the ability to print a surfaces at multiple angles and the ability to self -supported. Focusing on a two directional support helped make the structure stable and better to print
Model 4 implements Model 3 into a self-
supported shell structure. The ability to be printed on site without the need for supports of any secondary structure.

Nepal Project
22
This project was a development project that Joe Kennedy 4th year studio section was participating in and designing the concept in which will eventually be built. The project takes place in Nepal on a steep incline with many challenges that we are not use to facing. Adapting to the cultural differences from Nepal and listening to the input from the locals the studio group was able to develop a concept for the proposed development.

Inner Light
32
Inner Light is a project that was developed over two different section . The first section explores the capabilities of computational design and adaptive facades. The second section looks at the variable used for the adaptive facade and determines if the form used was correct for the variables. This is done by using the evolution solver within grasshopper and developing parameters to determine a median value.

Newschool Welcome Center
40
The Newschool Welcome Center was a development project for a space in which new student would be welcomed into and go to for administrative needs. The development would also have different uses and would serve a greater purpose. The design creates individual buildings that are unified by a an enclosing structure creating interior spaces with an exterior feel.

Tuna Museum
48
The Tuna Museum looks at the history of tuna fishing in San Diego and uses these elements for the design process. The exterior enclosure of the building is a net like form that are used to catch large quantity of fish at once. The Three levels of the building are rotated to face vantage points on the site and the exterior of these levels are meant to resemble fishing boats. THe elevated pathways guide you to diffrent point on the site.
