AlgoLoam Loam Walls with Algorithmically Generated 3D Natural Reinforcement

Coordinator: TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITAET WIEN (AT)

We aim to develop Loam Walls with Algorithmically generated 3d Natural Fibre Reinforcement (AlgoLoam), as the first completely biodegradable, made of exclusively natural materials, self-supporting reinforced light loam wall solution, totally or partially prefabricated. AlgoLoam will be developed by an interdisciplinary team of architects, material scientists, textile technology experts, biomimetics experts, sustainability experts, mechanical engineers, loam/clay product developers and programmers, through collaborative, iterative processes to create critical interactions between disciplines. …
