Rapidly Deployed And Assembled Tensegrity System: An Augmented Design Approach, Phillip Anzalone, Stephanie Bayard, Ralph S. Steenblik Jan 2017

Rapidly Deployed And Assembled Tensegrity System: An Augmented Design Approach, Phillip Anzalone, Stephanie Bayard, Ralph S. Steenblik

Publications and Research

The Rapidly Deployable and Assembled Tensegrity (RDAT) project enables the efficient automated design and deployment of differential-geometry tensegrity structures through computation-driven design-to-installation workflow. RDAT employs the integration of parametric and solid-modeling methods with production by streamlining computer numerically controlled manufacturing through novel detailing and production techniques to develop an efficient manufacturing and assembly system. The RDAT project emerges from the Authors' research in academia and professional practice focusing on computationally produced full-scale performative building systems and their innovative uses in the building and construction industry.


More Than Just A Glass Face: What Makes A "Green" Or "Sustainable" Building, Exactly?, Kelli Kokame Jan 2017

More Than Just A Glass Face: What Makes A "Green" Or "Sustainable" Building, Exactly?, Kelli Kokame

Pomona Senior Theses

Buildings are responsible for a wide range of environmental impacts. In response to this, several green building standards have been developed. Each standard uses different strategies and has different approaches to defining what features should make up a green building. This thesis uses the LEED, BREEAM, EEWH, and Living Building Challenge standards as a lens through which this question of what makes a green building is explored, with an emphasis on the distinction between greenness and sustainability in the built environment.

Revitalizing Tio Chew Chinese Cemetery Through A Design Of An Elderly Center, Khai Sin Lee

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Old cemeteries are often threatened by new urban development, which can result in them being closed, relocated or demolished. This thesis studies Tio Chew Cemetery in Bangkok as an alternative case based on its current unique use as a recreation area. Although without the threats of demolition, several on-site issues, both tangible and intangible, are facing Tio Chew Cemetery. To respond to these issues, a design of an elderly center is proposed to improve and revitalize the cemetery through the understanding of historical importance and contemporary design of new buildings in the old compound. This research applies a mixed methodology …


Architectural Design Factors Influencing Pedestrian Flow In Community Malls: A Case Study Of Thong Lo, Nicha Wiboonpote Jan 2017

Architectural Design Factors Influencing Pedestrian Flow In Community Malls: A Case Study Of Thong Lo, Nicha Wiboonpote

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

During the past decade, community malls are in the fastest growing category of Bangkok's retail industry. This growth was due to their building layouts and types of tenants which match urban lifestyles; along with Bangkok zoning restrictions for large shopping centers in residential areas. Today, the number of community malls with three or more floors (mid-rise community malls) is growing, especially in Thong Lo. This is because of the increasing land prices, where investments in community malls with one-two floors are no longer cost-effective. However, mid-rise community malls commonly have the issue of low pedestrian flows on the upper floors, …

In addition, existing art spaces are outnumbered by the sheer quantity of artworks due to continuous artistic production. Several art spaces counteract this problem by expanding …
