Making Structural Logic – ENAC WEEK

The ENAC week Making Structural Logic 2022 provides students with the opportunity to apply theoretical structural principles in an applied context through the collaborative and interdisciplinary design of thin wooden shell structures.

Working at a 1:1 scale encourages an inductive and iterative testing, based on constant observation of material properties and structural logic. The so conceived and built prototypes will explore structural and material limits as well as spatial quality and economy of means. The structures will be demounted at the end of the week into fully reusable elements (timber profiles and steel bolts) and so manifest circular economy in pure form.
