A Proposal for Classification of Additive Manufacturing in Architecture

Abstract

The latest developments in computational design has caused a massive paradigm shift in contemporary architecture. While the power of the new computational tools allow the designers to design fluid and dynamic transformational forms replacing the rigid norms of current processes, it also accelerates the integration of design and making. Digital manufacturing and in particular Additive Manufacturing (AM) has shown to have a big impact on how designers think of complex mechanisms and geometries while designing. This paper is motivated by the latest developments in Additive Manufacturing (AM) in large scale structures and the opportunities arising from manufacturing components, modules and even monolith buildings. This paper is part of a larger research on Additive Manufacturing (AM) and has evolved organically out of necessity while trying to map out the latest developments about large scale AM processes. The aim of this paper is to better understand and position the latest developments therefore challenges on a number of diverse subjects through a proposed classification method.

Mimaride Eklemeli Üretim Sistemlerinin Sınıflandırması için bir Öneri

Abstract

Dijital ve hesaplamalı tasarımdaki en son gelişmeler çağdaş mimarlıkta paradigma kaymasına sebep olmuştur. Yeni hesaplamalı tasarım araçları mimarın tasarım esnasında kullandığı form yelpazesini genişletmiş ve rijit formlar yerine daha akışkan ve dinamik formlar kullanmasına imkan sağlamıştır. Ancak yeni hesaplamalı tasarım araçları çağdaş mimarinin sadece form yelpazesini genişletmekle kalmamış aynı zamanda tasarlama ve yapma eylemlerinin arasındaki kopuşu sonlandırma gücüne sahip olmuştur. Dijital üretim teknikleri ve özellikle de Eklemeli Üretim teknikleri karmaşık geometrilerin üretimini kolaylaştırdığı için tasarımcıların tasarım esnasında düşünme biçimlerini de etkilemiştir. Yapı ölçeğinde Eklemeli Üretim sistemlerinde kaydedilen gelişmeler ve bu gelişmelerden doğan fırsatlar bu makalenin arkasındaki ana itici güç olmuştur. Makale Eklemeli Üretim sistemleri üzerine yürütülmüş daha geniş kapsamlı bir araştırmanın parçası olup, en son gelişmelerin anlaşılması ve daha büyük resimde sağlıklı bir şekilde konumlandırılabilme ihtıyacı sonucu ortaya çıkmıştır. Önerilen sınıflandırma yöntemi ile en son gelişmeler ve uygulamada çözülmeye çalışılan sorunlar geniş bir yelpazedeki araştırmalar içinde daha iyi konumlandırılması hedeflenmiştir.
