Direct Deposition of Jammed Architectural Structures
The research presented in this paper investigates novel techniques and tools for robotic fabrication of fibre reinforced granular structures built without any type of formwork. Combining granular jamming with strategically placed, continuous reinforcement, allows for precise fabrication of Jammed Architectural Structures (JAS) out of crushed rock and string that are fully recyclable. By further combining the material system with computational design and robotic fabrication enable to place and compact materials directly where needed, without formwork, allows building bespoke architectural structures in an additive, fully reversible and waste-free manner.
The paper describes techniques and challenges for implementing a robotic direct deposition of JAS for fabrication of building-scale and loadbearing artefacts, and highlights the prospects of in-situ fabrication that is exemplified by two one-story tall prototypes. The robot direct depositions the material system in space, without formwork: first, a robot places string in loop-based pattern; second, it places small piles of aggregates inside the string loops, on top of the previously aggregated material; third, it carefully packs the piles and activates the string trough tension.
