Abstract
GARCIA ALVARADO, Rodrigo. Digital fabrication of construction models: analysis of equipments and procedures. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2011, n.59, pp.145-157. ISSN 0120-6230.
This paper sets out a preliminary classification of digital fabrication equipment and possible uses in the design and execution of buildings. It proposes the elaboration of construction models by laser cutters in order to study material and industrial possibilities. Digital design strategies for the execution of these models are set out, and the development of an internal script in 3D-modeling software is presented. Finally, several conditions of the elaborated models are analyzed, verifying the constructive issues review on design, as well as, optimisation and industrialization.
Keywords : Construction; Building design; digital fabrication; models; laser-cutter.
