Abstract: |
With the 300.000m² three dimensional folded façade, Bao’an International Airport in Shenzhen is one of the largest parametrically defined buildings in the world. This paper is addressing the application of automated, parametric procedures, used to design some of the world largest free form structures. By comparing different projects realized by Knippers Helbig Advanced Engineering, different approaches for achieving a structually and visually optimal design are explained, as well as principal methods of cooperation between architects and engineers. |
