STRUCTURE 結構: In STAGE2 of the design, we are looking deeply into the structural solution, trying to further study the structure base on tradition Chinese/ Japanese timber structure and mechanical engineering. 在項目深化設計的過程中,基於競賽的設計理念,我们深入研究了結構的可行性和解決方案,試圖從...
“You know, if we built this out of concrete, it would have taken 40 to 60 guys. We built the structure—post concrete—with basically 15 carpenters and some very talented laborers. You’ll always need concrete, but the mix of both concrete and mass timber answers a whole lot of ...
6-metre-tall mass-timber(拼接木材) tower in Milwaukee, Wisconsin designed by Korb + Associates Architects, has been certified as the world's tallest timber building. Located in a neighbourhood near the lakefront, the 25-storey tower is made almost entirely from timber except for the base,...
