Abstract
The present paper describes the development of a digitally controlled mou Id that
forms a double curved and fair surface directly from the digital CAD model. The
primary motivation for the development of the mould is to reduce the cost of constructing double curved, cast elements for architecture, both in-situ cast and modular. Today, such elements are usually cast in milled formwork that is expensive and produces a lot of waste. Architects are often limited in their freedom of design by the high costs of the existing methods and as a result, the possibilities for drawing and evaluating complex shapes in architecture today, are not reflected in the build architecture.
