| Abstract: |
This paper addresses current questions of the research project “Timberfabric: Applying Textile Principles on Building Scale”. In particular, it discusses the question of how different Timberfabric structures based on differing spatial arrays of Textile Modules can be generated. In this context, double-layered build-ups are proposed as a solution which is not only lightweight but also light- transmissive. Several recently developed examples of double layered build-ups are discussed in detail. |
