Computer drafting has become the industry standard, facilitating rapid and accurate communication among architects, engineers, and contractors. There is now a corresponding move toward Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) using computer numerically controlled machines. Similar to the manufacture of products, digital files used by architects are sent to fabricators to make building components using CNC instrumentation, dramatically streamlining the production process. Because architecture operates at a much larger scale than product design, however, the demands placed on CNC instrumentation are unique. This talk will describe the creative potential of digital fabrication for architectural design using examples from my professional practice, IwamotoScott, as well as some of my students' work in the Department of Architecture.</td></tr><tr><td>Category</td><td>:</td><td>Digital Fabrication</td></tr><tr><td>Views</td><td>:</td><td>71</td></tr><tr><td>Votes</td><td>:</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><td>Rating</td><td>:</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Downloads</td><td>:</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Added by</td><td>:</td><td>postscapesllc</td></tr><tr><td>Date</td><td>:</td><td>2008-05-06 04:35:23</td></tr></table>
