RP 3-1 – Multi-Storey Wood Building System

Multi-Storey Wood Building System

Research Project 3-1 (RP 3-1)

COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN, ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT OF DIGITALLY FABRICATED MULTI-STOREY WOOD BUILDING SYSTEM

Current wood building systems are greatly dependent on rigid grids as an ordering system, resulting in severe design limitations for open-plan, flexible spaces and bespoke architectural solutions. The main aim of this project is to address these architectural limitations through the development of a novel, genuinely digital wood building system that will enable the adoption of prefabricated timber construction in additional building typologies. This will integrate computational design, engineering and building physics in close relationship with the respective fabrication strategies. The building system includes the design and development of structural components as well as building services, insulation and cladding. Key characteristics of the building systems we aim to achieve are grid independence, biaxial spans and pointwise concentrated supports. This presents challenges for the structure, building physics and building services. Through the Co-Design of these aspects, together with the development of new joint systems, this research project will integrate and run hand in hand with novel concepts of cyber-physical on- and off-site production (Research Project RP 4-1). In addition, it will consider the development of bio-based material systems (Research Project RP 6-1), adjustments and requirements of technical standards and legal frameworks (Reseach Project RP 7-1), and the consideration of novel design opportunities for IntCDC-based multi-storey timber buildings (Research Project RP 10-1).

  @article{Mueller_2024, abstract = {The increasing use of timber in multi-story construction has highlighted challenges related to the vibration behavior of timber floor slabs, affecting both structural and acoustic performance. Floor vibrations between 0 and 20 Hz and structure-borne sound especially between 50 and 100 Hz are impairing the user comfort and serviceability. This paper investigates a mono-material approach using wooden tuned mass dampers (TMDs) to reduce these vibrations in timber slabs, particularly in buildings with long spans. Eigenmodes in relevant frequency ranges are first identified, followed by the separate design and interdisciplinary integration of TMDs for structural and acoustic performance. The study integrates acoustic and structural design requirements through an interdisciplinary process, employing both experimental and numerical models. Results demonstrate that wooden TMDs can address both disciplines and reduce deflection in timber slabs and improve structure-borne and low-frequency sound transmission.}, author = {Müller, Theresa and Krtschil, Anna and Mahler, Michael and Knippers, Jan and Leistner, Philip}, doi = {10.1177/14613484241286586}, issn = {2048-4046}, journal = {Journal of Low Frequency Noise, Vibration and Active Control}, language = {eng}, month = {10}, pages = 17, publisher = {SAGE Publications}, title = {Structural and acoustic behavior of a timber slab with wooden tuned mass dampers}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/14613484241286586}, year = 2024 }

The division of a surface using its PC lines into principal strips (PSs) is an innovative way to break down a freeform surface for construction. However, the application of PC networks in architectural design is hindered by the difficulty to generate them and flexibly control their density. This paper introduces a method for PS-based reconstruction of freeform surfaces with different umbilical conditions in the early stages of design. An agent-based modeling approach is developed to find the umbilics and increase the degree of control over the spacing of PC lines.

  @article{Tapia_2023, abstract = {A new jointing concept for the vertical load transfer between glued laminated timber (GLT) columns in multi-storey timber buildings has been developed. The basic components of the connection are two stepped, pyramid-shaped inserts made from block-glued laminated veneer lumber (LVL), which are bonded oppositely into corresponding cavities of the jointed GLTs. The load transfer between the mating columns relies on an intermediate LVL pin, fitting into pyramid-type cavities. Beech LVL was chosen for both, insert and pin, due to its 2.2 times higher characteristic compressive strength as compared to the employed high-strength softwood GLT (GL32h). The form fit of the stepped components which are bonded together relies on high precision robotic milling and a gap-filling two-component polyurethane adhesive. Manufacturing and mechanical performance of the scalable connection was investigated with full-sized specimens, achieving up to 90% of the characteristic GLT compressive capacity of 1040kN for a cross-section of 180mm×180mm. A parametric model based on the finite element method (FEM) showed a good agreement with empiric strain distributions and provided a stress-spread angle of 35° for the concentrated vertical load for an analytical design approach. The location and magnitude of tensile stresses perpendicular to the grain causing splitting failure was identified by FEM. Reinforcement by self-tapping screws proved a significant load-capacity enhancement. The mean experimental axial compressive load capacity exceeded the analytical prediction by 19%. First investigations on the rotational stiffness delivered a value of 240kNm/rad. The column utilization due to additional directly supported floor slabs was assessed exclusively by FEM. The calculation results predict a significant reduction of the tensile stresses perpendicular to the grain to be verified experimentally.}, author = {Tapia, Cristóbal and Aicher, Simon}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2023.116770}, issn = {0141-0296}, journal = {Engineering Structures}, pages = 116770, title = {A new concept for column-to-column connections for multi-storey timber buildings — Numerical and experimental investigations}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0141029623011859}, volume = 295, year = 2023 }

Constrained urban environments and building stock extensions are challenges for standard timber construction. Co-design promises to better integrate disciplines and processes, promising smaller feedback loops for design iteration and building verification. This article describes the integrated design, fabrication, and construction processes of a timber building prototype as a case study for the application of co-design methods. Emphasis is placed on the development of design and engineering methods, fabrication and construction processes, and materials and building systems. The development of the building prototype builds on previous research in robotic fabrication (including prefabrication, task distribution, and augmented reality integration), agent-based modelling (ABM) for the design and optimisation of structural components, and the systematisation of timber buildings and their components. The results presented in this article include a functional example of co-design from which best practises may be extrapolated as part of an inductive approach to design research.

  @article{Tapia_2022, abstract = {A new connection concept for joining cross-laminated timber (CLT) plates in their secondary direction is presented. The connection consists of two laminated veneer lumber (LVL) gusset plates with finger-joint-like profiles milled on one side which are glued onto the outermost layers of the CLT. It is demonstrated that the joint represents a stiff moment resistant connection, enabling the activation of the normally underutilized biaxiality of CLT plates and expanding the design freedom of architects and engineers. The concept was analyzed by means of analytical and finite element (FE) models for two geometry alternatives, differing in either a 2D or 3D tapered finger profile. The 3D tapered finger profile produced a stress reduction of around 5% in the region of stress concentration and a more even shear stress distribution on the bonded surface. Thereafter, four specimens were manufactured – two of each geometry alternative – and then tested in four- and three-point bending setups in order to assess the behavior at pure bending as well as at combined moment and shear loading, respectively. At pure bending, the studied connection delivered bending capacities of 100% of the characteristic value of the unjointed CLT material. For the case of moment and shear loading, the global capacity was determined by a bending failure in the CLT region subjected to maximum moment, while the joints remained unbroken. Measured deformations and strains during the tests validated the FE model, which can be used to further develop the connection concept, which allows for a full activation of the biaxial behavior of large-span CLT floors.}, author = {Tapia, Cristóbal and Claus, Marian and Aicher, Simon}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2022.127645}, issn = {0950-0618}, journal = {Construction and Building Materials}, pages = 127645, title = {A finger-joint based edge connection for the weak direction of CLT plates}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0950061822013204}, volume = 340, year = 2022 }

The lack of adaptability of timber slabs to accommodate multiple span directions makes it difficult to compete with reinforced concrete slabs constructed on site. This paper describes an adaptive slab system composed of thin Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) panels and robot-fabricated beam networks for reinforcement. The beam network was developed through intricate negotiation of structural optimization and fabrication constraints, which can adapt to changes in slab span and directions. A mobile robot platform that allows for on-site assembly of timber sticks into continuous beam networks was developed. The robot platform and slab system were tested with a case study pavilion.

The design freedom of timber structures is incomparable to that of reinforced concrete structures, which mostly gains from the in-situ fabrication process. An in-situ robotic timber fabrication platform allows the on-site construction of glulam structures with highly differentiated networks of beams composed of robotically assembled discrete linear elements. Based on the possibilities of such mobile robotic fabrication process, this paper explores novel architectural typologies of spatial glulam structures. The research is conducted from several aspects including joint tectonics, design method, and robotic fabrication process. A large-scale pavilion is designed and fabricated to verify the feasibility of the proposed system.

  @inproceedings{Wagner2021, abstract = {In this paper we introduce a novel design to fabrication method called three-dimensional fibre placement in wood (3D-FPW) and demonstrate its applicability for lightweight hybrid timber structures. 3D-FPW allows for the joining and reinforcement through a combination of (1) minimally invasive subtractive CNC milling operations during the prefabrication of wooden building components and (2) the subsequent insertion of continuous fibrous materials to reinforce them and/or connect them on-site. Although natural fibres can be used for such technique, the presented work focuses on CFRP tows - that have a special advantage as they can be cured via electrical current in-place without oven or autoclave while the wood material acts both as insulator and formwork. The three-dimensional geometries of the discussed fibrous arrangements are hardly limited in their form which makes precise computational design strategies the cornerstone for an effective exploration, understanding and exploitation of the design potentials of such structures. We show how principal local stress-directions, fabrication specifications as well as design- and environmental considerations can be considered to form-find meaningful fibrous layouts within such structures. The proposed technique most notably creates novel performance-spectrums for sustainable, ultra-lightweight bespoke wood architecture by enabling tailor- made bending resistant on-site connections, that break free from added weight, expense and the intensive energy footprint of steel connectors. We further discuss our investigations within this framework through the prototypical fabrication of physical demonstrators that represent a comprehensive set of wood building system typologies: custom fibre-reinforced slab plates, a segmented plate shell structure and a polygonal lattice shell structure.}, author = {Wagner, Hans Jakob and Garufi, Dominga and Schwinn, Tobias and Wood, Dylan Marx and Menges, Achim}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the IASS Annual Symposium 2020/21 and the 7th International Conference on Spatial Structures}, editor = {Behnejad, S.A. and Parke, G.A.R. and Samavati, O.A.}, file = {:C\:/Users/ac128044/Google Drive/ICD_Wagner/01_Publikationen/1809_FIBRE_TIMBER/2107_IASS_Surrey/Paper Submission/IASS_3D_Fibre_Placement_in_Wood.pdf:pdf}, organization = {IASS }, title = {Three-Dimensional Fibre Placement in Wood for connections and reinforcements in timber structures}, venue = {Guilford (UK)}, year = 2021 }

These methods enable the production of tailor-made and differentiated building components that integrate design intention, robotic fabrication, structural performance, assembly logics and functional aspects but require advanced strategies to achieve and control production quality. We present methods to assure the quality control of the fast-paced production of the BUGA Wood Pavilion – a 500m² segmented wood shell structure - that was erected within 13 months from commission to opening. In this project, 376 bespoke hollow wood cassettes were robotically assembled, glued and milled to shapes. In order to achieve structurally performative tight-fit joints, minimal tolerances in the fabrication process needed to be achieved. Furthermore, the quality of the gluing interface, its tolerances, individual pressing forces, process- and environmental factors needed to be respected for the design and operation of robotic gluing processes to meet building regulations. New challenges arise for the design, management and control of production quality when co-dependent and integrated innovations are brought forward in respect to both building system as well as fabrication automation on a per- project level. Novel frameworks will need to be established that dwell on digital technologies for faster and more reliable process and quality control in timber construction.

The emphasis is on the development of a new constructive solution for a scalable, bespoken connection type, which enables to overcome today's rigid rectangular floor grid restrictions, thus enabling open-plan and flexible space architecture. The paper firstly reveals some of the recent developments of column-to-slab solutions in engineered timber construction. Then the constructive detailing, the finite element based modelling and some test results of a bonded connection, manufactured exclusively out of wood, are presented. The novel solution is based on specific orthogonally layered and stepped inserts, based on laminated veneer lumber (LVL) from beech wood, which are bonded into precisely fitting cavities in the CLT. The connection enables a multidirectional load transfer, being a prime requisite to enable biaxial plate action of the CLT elements, which span today almost exclusively uniaxially in their strong direction. The detailing and foremost the manufacture of the developed connection relies essentially on high precision CNC milling, which plays a key role in advanced timber connection solutions. This is especially true for the case of bonded connections which require very small tolerances.

The result of the rough analysis, provided, can then be used for the segmentation of the slab within this same file. Once segmented, the slab can be analysed again. The result of the fine analysis, provided, can then be fed to 02_SplotchWeb_Generate to arrange the slab’s internal reinforcement. }, affiliation = {Orozco, Luis/Universität Stuttgart, Skoury, Lior/Universität Stuttgart, Menges, Achim/Universität Stuttgart}, author = {Orozco, Luis and Skoury, Lior and Menges, Achim}, doi = {10.18419/darus-4170}, howpublished = {Software}, note = {Related to: Orozco, L., Krtschil, A., Wagner, H.

  @dataset{udaykumar2024timber, abstract = {This dataset contains an agent-based exploration of the design space for modular slab and column systems. The primary objective is to equip designers with the ability to pinpoint structural configurations that adhere to Serviceability Limit State (SLS) deflection criteria from the beginning of the design process. The methods represent an innovative design methodology aimed at discovering configurations that minimize environmental impact through strategic column-slab positioning and dimensioning, all while satisfying SLS deflection standards. To facilitate this approach, a guidance-based real-time Finite Element Analysis (FEA) feedback design tool has been developed, allowing for the empirical validation of the proposed method. The database contains the source code for the ICL plugin, built on top of the ABxM Framework. By opening the ICL.sln solution in the Visual Studio IDE, both the ICL.Core and ICL.GH projects can be compiled to generate a grasshopper plugin. The ICL plugin can then be used in conjunction with the ABxM canonical example files to create agents, give them behaviours, combine them into an agent system, assign it an environment, and finally run the simulation using the ICL Solver.
