    Abstract : Concrete is one of the most commonly used construction materials, yet industrial fabrication continues to default to established standards of planar formwork and uniform cross-sections for the sake of simplicity and predictability. The research conducted within Concrete Form[ing]work explored alternative methods of producing concrete formwork with a simple, technical re-imagination of material: exchanging the familiar, i.

    Author : Helena Westerlind; Hélèna Frichot; Marcelyn Gow; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architectural Technology; Arkitekturteknik;

    Abstract : The traditional use of concrete in architecture is fundamentally conditioned by the inverse relationship that exists between material and formwork. When poured into a mold, a homogenous mixture takes the shape of its container. More detailed adjustment of the structure of concrete, however, is not possible. READ MORE
