Structural Models Based on Minimal Surfaces and Geodesics
https://orcid.org/http://orcid.org/0000-0001-6600-6024
This article presents the results of research carried out with respect to the geometric, formal and structural adaptation of minimal surfaces. These surfaces were discretized into strips developable on geodesic curves, and then used for the construction of timber gridshells. For this project, both physical and virtual models derived from the same geometric models were used. The objective was to demonstrate the validity of the use of models and the transformation that modelling is undergoing due to the use of digital tools, both software and hardware. These include, on the one hand, drawing and analysis software and, on the other, digitally controlled fabrication tools. This research focuses specifically on the design and construction of the Scherk Pavilion, a space where the results of various experiments in which the common factor was the use of models was transferred to a real scale.
