Conference Proceeding
Pone, S., Colabella, S., D'Amico, B., Fiore, A., Lancia, D., & Parenti, B. (2013). Timber Post-formed Gridshell: Digital Form-finding / drawing and building tool.

Summary: This research deals with design, structural analysis and construction of timber post-formed gridshells. Starting from the scale modelling experience, from 1:20 to 1:1 scale, a digital form-finding strategy was early developed with a Building...

In this paper, the design procedure and construction phases of a post-formed timber grid-shell are described. For form-finding and verification of structural safety, two different numerical models were developed. A particle-springs system tool was...
