Funded Activity Summary

Adaptive structural systems for high-performance buildings. This project aims to develop adaptive structural systems for high-performance buildings. A new theoretical platform will be instrumental in the development of building technologies such as adaptive shading and ventilation components. In a reversal of the conventional design avoidance of structural phenomena such as lateral and flexural-torsional buckling, these phenomena will be exploited to achieve functional forms for shading components. Thin-metal ventilation ducts will be embedded within structural components to produce optimised ventilation strategies and to increase thermal mass, while accounting for their structural contribution.
