</h3> <div class="teaser-text"> <p itemprop="description"> As part of the Future of Construction 2024 Symposium in Mendrisio, we are collaboratively organizing a two-day Future Earth workshop (4. - 5. November), exploring key principles of earth building and digital fabrication. Participants will learn to classify contemporary earth mixtures, from printable to cast materials, and gain hands-on experience in setting up suitable formworks. The workshop will also address how factors such as the overall shape, size, orientation and frequency of erosion breakers can produce durable earthen structures that become more beautiful as they age. <span class="news-list-morelink"> <a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" title="Future Earth Workshop at Future of Construction Symposium 2024" target="_blank" href="https://www.arc.ed.tum.de/fileadmin/w00cgv/df/WS1_FutureEarth.pdf"> [read more] </a> </span> </p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="article articletype-0 mb-3 " itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://schema.org/Article" > <div class="news-img-wrap"> <a aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" title="TES Research-Presentation at Builtworld: Building Circular" target="_blank" href="https://www.builtworld.com/event/holz-trifft-lehm-die-zukunft-des-mehrgeschossigen-baus"> <picture> <source media="(min-width: 1200px)" srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/d/1/csm_Builtworld_-_Kopie_fd805c852f.webp" type="image/webp" /> <source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/d/1/csm_Builtworld_-_Kopie_fc2f20db6b.webp 328w, /fileadmin/_processed_/d/1/csm_Builtworld_-_Kopie_3da0636af2.webp 249w, " sizes="(min-width: 768px) 376px, (min-width: 752px) 249px, (min-width: 520px) 656px, calc(100vw - 24px)" type="image/webp"> <img src="/fileadmin/_processed_/d/1/csm_Builtworld_-_Kopie_1ef02b276f.webp" width="300" height="300" alt="" /> </picture> </a> </div> <div class="header"> <div class="catdate"> <span class="categories"> Conference </span> | <time datetime="2024.10.24"> 24.10.2024 <meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2024-10-24"/> </time> </div> <h3 itemprop="headline"> <a itemprop="url" title="TES Research-Presentation at Builtworld: Building Circular" target="_blank" href="https://www.builtworld.com/event/holz-trifft-lehm-die-zukunft-des-mehrgeschossigen-baus"> TES Research-Presentation at Builtworld: Building Circular <span class="ti ti-link-ext" aria-hidden="true"></span> </a> </h3> <div class="teaser-text"> <p itemprop="description"> On October 24th, we are invited to participate in the panel discussion „Timber meets Earth: The Future of Multi-Story Construction“ as part of the "Building Circular" series.

With a growing global population and an increasing demand for housing, the construction sector is reaching its limits. Faced with these challenges, the question for the future is central: How can we create necessary housing and infrastructure with minimal material and emissions? This is what the Collaborative Research Centre TRR 277 “Additive Manufacturing in Construction” (AMC) is researching. </p> <p> </p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="c55506" class="frame frame-type-textmedia frame-layout-0"> <div class="ce-textpic ce-left ce-intext ce-nowrap ce-textpic-equalheight" > <div class="ce-gallery js-colorbox" data-ce-columns="1" data-ce-images="1" > <figure class="image"> <a href="/fileadmin/w00cgv/df/_my_direct_uploads/Team_Retreat_2023-edit.jpg" data-fancybox="gallery55506" data-media="(max-width: 520px);(max-width: 767px);(max-width: 1199px);(max-width: 1399px);(min-width: 1400px)" data-sources="/fileadmin/_processed_/e/1/csm_Team_Retreat_2023-edit_ef01c8e758.jpg; /fileadmin/_processed_/e/1/csm_Team_Retreat_2023-edit_6c7b0e153f.jpg; /fileadmin/_processed_/e/1/csm_Team_Retreat_2023-edit_cec855e277.jpg; /fileadmin/w00cgv/df/_my_direct_uploads/Team_Retreat_2023-edit.jpg; /fileadmin/w00cgv/df/_my_direct_uploads/Team_Retreat_2023-edit.jpg " data-caption="" aria-label=" Open gallery here" class="ti ti-link-zoom"> <picture><img class="image-embed-item" loading="lazy" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/e/1/csm_Team_Retreat_2023-edit_64621fc77d.webp" width="200" height="200" alt="" /></picture> </a> </figure> </div> <div class="ce-bodytext"> <p><strong>October</strong><strong> </strong><strong>25</strong><strong> </strong><strong>-</strong><strong> </strong><strong>27</strong><strong>, 2023</strong><strong> - Research Retreat 2023</strong></p> <p>In October, our AFAB team gathered once again at the<a href="https://www.hkarchitekten.at/en/project/tum-forschungs-und-lehrstation-berchtesgarden/" target="_top">TUM Friedrich N.

The local creation of microclimates can be achieved by the careful and purposeful design of spaces by passive heating or cooling methods or by the installment of active technical devices. The research-by-design module CAB will explore the microclimate effects we can achieve with the creation of geometrically differentiated brick structures. We will explore computational simulation methods to support us in the process of design and robotic fabrication to produce architectural prototypes.

In this space, the most common cleaning devices, namely brooms, act as objects of dual nature. When taken by visitors, they become a magic wand for sweeping the floor filled with virtual rubbish. Care Protocols questions the notion of technology and development as a disruptive force and asks if we can associate it with the notion of maintenance, which deals with cyclicity, care and regeneration. By alienating and gamifying usually invisible maintenance actions, the installation aims to become a playful act of human engagement in our ever-changing and digitally enhanced environment.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="c-link-to-top js-link-to-top"> <a href="#topbar" title="go back to the top of the page"> To top </a> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-3 col-xl-2 c-content-area__aside js-link-checker"> <div id="sidebar" class="sidebar"> <aside class="c-aside"> <div id="c24618" class="frame frame-type-textmedia frame-layout-0"> <p><strong>Professorship of</strong><br><strong>Digital Fabrication</strong><br>Prof. Dr. sc.
