Samenvatting

Bio-based composite materials in architecture have gained various new applications due to their availability, renewability, and environmentally-friendly characteristics. This paper demonstrates the use of bio-based building materials for load-bearing structures through a 1:1 realized segmented shell pavilion, referred to as BioMat Pavilion 2018. The pavilion consisted of 121 parametrically optimized curved elements prepared by a vacuum-assisted veneer-reinforcement lamination process. The biocomposite panels were fabricated from elastic or flexible fibreboards applied as sandwich cores laminated with veneer from both sides to provide elevated stiffness. Digitally prefabricated elements were bolted together on site into four shell segments, which were later lifted up and screwed, to three curved timber-intersecting beams, fixed to three footing foundations. In this paper analysis method, form-finding hierarchy and construction stages of the 3.6 m height, 9.5 m span, covering an area of around 55m2 are discussed.

Funding Information:
The author would like to thank all students, employees, technicians and agencies involved in this project. This work was the direct result of cooperation between around 40 architecture students over two semesters participating in the (Flexible Forms) Design Studio in the semesters: WS17/18 and SS18 supervised by the author with the support from the University of Stuttgart and the Baden-W?rttemberg Foundation. Financial support was from the German Agency for Renewable Resources (FNR) under the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL), and scientific cooperation took place with Fraunhofer-Institut f?r Holzforschung (Fraunhofer WKI) and industrial partners Mathias Stange ETS and Profine GmbH in the framework of the Research Project (BioProfile) FKZ 22021516 with assistance of BioMat employees including Mrs. Michaela Mey. International collaboration has taken place with the Technical University Eindhoven in the Netherlands (TU/e) - Department of Built Environment and local collaboration with various institutes of the University of Stuttgart took place, including the Institute of Construction and Structural Design (KE, Faculty 02: Civil and Environmental Engineering) - Prof. Urlike Kuhlmann and Mr. Janusch T?pler as well as the Institute of Engineering Geodesy (IIGS, Faculty 06: Aerospace Engineering and Geodesy) - Prof. Volker Schwieger and Mr. Gabriel Kerekes. Wooden beams were fabricated and supported by Burgbacher Holztechnologie GmbH with assistance of Mr. Steffen Haller, weathering resistant coatings were provided by Hexion Inc.
