This paper presents the design, fabrication and construction techniques used to build an off-site fabricated, modular, free-form wooden ceiling soffit for a building in Honolulu, Hawai’i. This architectural feature ceiling used wood in an unconventional way, calling for innovation at all stages of the Project: modelling, structural analysis, fabrication, transportation and installation. Dynamic relaxation was used to define the architectural surface, Grasshopper for the generation of a fully customisable 3D model, real time Finite Element Analysis for structural checks, and CNC machining for fabrication. The panels were shipped in containers and chain-hoisted into place. |
