PrintCast City
If it builds a city, what will it become?
Most of the cities face a housing crisis,this crisis is extremely evident in London. Londoners pay the highest rent in Europe.The average Londoers pays 60% of their income towards their rent.While the economic middle class is being forced out of city centers due to sky-rocketing housing prices,increasingly housing is viewed by the ultra-wealthy as a commodity to invest in,while occupying multi-room mansions.

The costs for spaces are split between users and the community,as the initial investment towards the 3d printing farm areates socio-cultural values and help diversify the borough.
---Based on user-defined space and topology optimization
The first step is mainly about structure optimization to generate space. The system starts to analyse the whole stress state . According to the analysised result to optimise the traditional structure so as to make whole structure lighter and more efficiently. The whole process is fully automated and generated in the programming. So in the housing system, it can generate the best result of structure based on user-defined function space. In the whole space, the structure grows escaping the customized space. Also the system can generate elements of different levels to resist force of different densities.
Structure Typology
Our project strategy is mainly about structure optimization. The strategy starts to analyse the whole stress state . According to the analysised.
Classified Structure Typology
Our project strategy is mainly about structure optimization. The strategy starts to analyse the whole stress state . According to the analysised
There are 4 steps : curves (analysed line ) - vector field of various orientations - lines with 45 degree - continuous line. The process from unordered stress information to a sequence of analysed result to improve the previous structure.
Taking the slab as the object of construction practice, parts printing - assembly - concrete casting are carried out according to the model form generated by the computational design.
To achieve superior printing outcomes, we have opted to construct a custom 3D printing head, which is affixed to a robotic arm. This innovative approach aims to transcend the size constraints associated with conventional 3D printers.
