| Abstract |
The project involves gaining an understanding of generative design, as opposed to passive design, to become more in tune with the technological future of intelligent design with architects’ design capacities augmented by artificial intelligence (A.I.). The study will apply a method called “graphical statics” to shape structures using force polygons, which are representations of magnitude and direction of a system of forces in equilibrium. A system of algorithms will be developed employing the same principles as graphical statics to shape reinforced concrete shells. Essential mathematics for computational design utilizing the program Grasshopper - an algorithmic modeling plugin for Rhino (a 3D modeling software) that uses a visual programming will be used to script codes that will respond to the force polygons that are required to support the shapes of the concrete shell roof forms.
