Computational conceptual design — typological exploration of spatial truss systems through optimization

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jonas Warmuth

Exploring a wide range of design options is crucial for every sound conceptual design process. In the conventional structural design workflow, optimization techniques are generally employed to generate well-performing design options. However, focusing only ...

Automated Design Appraisal: Estimating Real Estate Price Growth and Value at Risk Due to Local Development

Adam Robert Swietek

Financial criteria in architectural design evaluation are limited to cost performance. Here, I introduce a method – Automated Design Appraisal (ADA) – to predict the market price of a generated building design concept within a local urban context. Integrat ...

Carbon budgets at the component scale and their impacts on design choices: the façade as a case study

Marilyne Andersen, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Nazanin Rezaei Oghazi

In accordance with the Paris agreement, the Swiss Climate Strategy (SCS) defines the net-zero target to be reached before 2050, which demands for a thoughtful carbon budget allocation between the different contributors. Ongoing normalization tasks are curr ...

Interactive design with optimum matchmaking of reused structural elements – a software implementation

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Jonas Warmuth

Structural systems are a significant contributor to buildings’ embodied carbon and reusing structural elements in new load-bearing applications is one strategy to reduce this impact. However, integrating this approach into existing design workflows without ...

Design and control of a prototype structure that adapts to loading through large shape changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This paper reports on experimental testing that was carried out on a prototype adaptive structure designed to counteract the effect of loading through controlled large shape changes. The prototype is 6.6 m truss equipped with 12 linear actuators which has ...

Integrating urban energy simulation in a parametric environment: a Grasshopper interface for CitySim

Marilyne Andersen, Emmanuel Rey, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Giuseppe Peronato

The increasing popularity of parametric design tools goes hand in hand with the use of building performance simulation (BPS) tools from the early design phase. However, current methods require a significant computational time and a high number of parameter ...

Lateral Torsional Buckling of steel bridge girders

Jean-Paul Lebet, Raphaël Thiébaud

The Lateral Torsional Buckling (L.T.B.) design of beams in buildings has received considerable attention over the last decades, and relatively similar improved design rules are now implemented in major design standards. On the contrary, it may be shown tha ...

Interactive expert support for early stage full-year daylighting design: a user’s perspective on Lightsolve

Marilyne Andersen

Designing spaces that are able to balance illumination, glare and solar gains over a year is a real challenge, yet a problem faced every day by building designers. To assist them, a full year, climate-based daylighting simulation method, called Lightsolve, ...
