2016 TAP Symposium
Future of Design: Architecture & Digital Fabrication
|
When: Tuesday, October 11
Time: 8:00 am - 5:30 pm
Where: UNC Charlotte School of Architecture
Price: $75 for AIA Associate members; $100 for all other AIA members, $135 for non-members
Building industry trends for high-performance architecture, reductions in the skilled construction trades and increased use of building information modelling point towards a big change in the building design and construction. As a result, designers and contractors have been influenced by the advanced fabrication techniques. Off-site pre-fabrication, on-site robotic assembly and large-scale 3D printing are just a few of the envisioned opportunities.
The symposium will connect manufacturers, academics, contractors and designers in the Carolinas and encourage the growth of advanced manufacturing processes in regional projects. For full details,
