Led by plug-in developer and structural engineer Clemens Preisinger, along with Zeynep Aksoz and Matthew Tam from the expert Karamba3D team, this three-day workshop will focus on methods of setting up structural systems in the parametric environment of Grasshopper. The participants will be guided through the basics of analyzing and interpreting structural models, to optimization processes, and how to integrate Karamba3D into C# scripts.
This workshop is aimed towards beginner to intermediate users of Karamba3D. However, advanced users are also encouraged to apply. It is open to both professional and academic users. For beginner users of Rhino and Grasshopper, there will be an optional introductory course one day before the Karamba3D course.
Karamba3D 1is a parametric structural engineering tool which provides accurate analysis of spatial trusses, frames, and shells. Karamba3D is fully embedded in the parametric design environment of Grasshopper, a plug-in for the 3D modeling tool Rhinoceros. This makes it easy to combine parameterized geometric models, finite element calculations, and optimization algorithms like Galapagos.
Course Outline
Introduction and presentation of project examples
Optimization of cross sections of line-based and surface-based elements
Geometric optimization
Topological optimization
Structural performance informed form finding
Understanding analysis algorithms embedded in Karamba3D and visualizing results
Complex workflow processes in Rhino, Grasshopper, and Karamba3D
Places are limited to a maximum of 10 participants with limited educational places. A minimum of 4 participants is required for the workshop to take place. The workshop will be canceled if this quota is not filled by October 28. The workshop will be taught in English.
Course Requirements

of the new challenges presented to the society and architecture in Portugal. With technological developments, tools once limited to not creative areas begin to be part of the everyday life of students in University Architecture Laboratories and change its design processes. The architecture design methods are changing rapidly with the introduction of CAD-CAM software’s. In recent years, new software’s have been available for 3D representation and digital fabrication, which have allowed creating new ways of interacting with the computer and architecture. Contemporary architecture in its various scales, seeks greater flexibility, adaptability and interactivity taking into account both the means and goals of kinetic systems. Thus, it is essential to the creative industry players to acquire new knowledge about the latest technological innovations and how they can solve some of the problems and challenges of today’s society.
The workshop will explore the use of Grasshopper, Firefly and Arduino as creative and technical tools in all the design process, to simulation and prototype 3D interactive architecture solutions.
The theoretical and practical workshop (64 hours) taught in English and Portuguese, will be composed of two modules: (1) LS_01: Firefly +Grasshopper + Arduino and Scale Model Fabrication; (2) LS_02: Design Studio – Discursive Wall.
This workshop is intended for students and professionals from different areas of knowledge, (architecture, design, fine arts, engineering, music and programming) who are interested in the process of design: from ideation to prototyping. The participants will generate scale models.
Registration is limited to 20 participants with or without software knowledge. Participants will work individually and in group. Participants must take their own laptops to the workshop. Registrants should complete the form by 28 February 2012. Once registered, you will receive an email confirming your acceptance.

and enhancing its intrinsic qualities.
The program of the workshop consists of an intense exploration of Günther Domenig’s Steinhaus (situated at Ossiachersee in Carinthia, Austria) and it’s visible and hidden properties. By the use of mapping strategies these properties can be isolated and will be implemented as a temporary installation.
Each participant will investigate certain spatial aspects using methods of mapping.
In a series of tutorials on various techniques, strategies will be developed to translate and structure the collected information into a unified spatial concept. Participants will work amongst groups to propose the result of their investigations with a site specific installation which will be digitally materialized on site.
Complementary program:
lecture by Stefan Rutzinger & Kristina Schinegger, soma
guided tour and lecture about Steinhaus and Günther Domenig by Christian Halm
presentation by Clemens Preisinger, karamba

connected hyperspace where architecture can be fluid, flexible and vivid, yet the aspect of materiality requires more attention.
Action-designed structures begin to move beyond the utopian proposals of the 20th century’s manifestos and hold a place in the world of realized designs. The AA Athens Visiting School aims to bring users closer to the built environment while revisiting habits of designing, building and experiencing space through materiality. Understanding materiality and form as a ‘unified whole’, the programme integrates manufacturing techniques through the experimentation fabrication of prototypes at a 1:1 scale.
Prominent Features of the workshop/ skills developed
Participants become part of an active learning environment where the large tutor to student ratio allows for personalized tutorials and debates.
The toolset of the Athens VS includes but is not limited to Processing and Grasshopper for Rhinoceros, as well as design analysis software.
Participants gain hands-on experience on digital fabrication.
Design seminars and a series of lectures support the key objectives of the programme, disseminating fundamental computational techniques, relevant critical thinking, theoretical understanding and professional awareness.

Il comfort visivo e la gestione dell’illuminazione naturale in relazione al risparmio energetico diventano sempre più rilevanti per una progettazione innovativa degli edifici. Ad esempio, il nuovo protocollo LEED 4 riconosce crediti per le simulazioni di daylighting e conferma l’importanza degli aspetti progettuali per “collegare gli occupanti con lo spazio esterno, rinforzare i ritmi circadiani, ridurre i consumi di energia elettrica per l’illuminazione artificiale con l’introduzione della luce naturale negli spazi”. Senza strumenti software per la simulazione della luce non è possibile ottenere risultati di qualità. Radiance è un software validato, utilizzato sia a livello di ricerca che dai progettisti ed è tra i più accurati per la simulazione professionale della luce naturale e artificiale. Non ha limiti di complessità geometrica ed è adatto a essere integrato in altri software di calcolo e interfacce grafiche. Queste ultime facilitano le procedure di programmazione. Le principali e più versatili saranno oggetto del corso (DIVA4Rhino e Ladybug+ Honeybee, plug-in per Grasshopper e Rhinoceros 3D).
Il corso è rivolto a progettisti e ricercatori che vogliano acquisire strumenti pratici per la simulazione con Radiance al fine di mettere a punto e verificare le soluzioni più adatte alle proprie esigenze. Sono previste lezioni di teoria e pratica con esempi ed esercitazioni volte a coprire in modo dimostrativo ed interattivo i concetti trattati.
Le domande di iscrizione devono essere presentate entro il 12 maggio 2016.

oo culm and the web is mad of bamboo slats connected to the culms on either side of the attachment points. To make things clearer (extracted from the above paper):
The authors of the paper did a numerical beam-model in ANSYS to see if they could replicate their theoretical results, and it is fairly correct (some differences due to the non-linear behavior of the semi-ring joints that they use, they remain of an order of 5-10% difference in maximum deflection).
My problem is that I am not able to obtain the same deflection values that the authors did (11.4 mm for a total service load of 7.063 kN applied punctually on the upper chord where the truss elements meet, or even replicate the load/deflection curve). Using an orthotropic material, with the engineering constants taken from (ResearchGate - A bamboo Beam-Column Connection Capable to Transmit Moment), my model is too flexible and I get a maximum deflection of 24.28 mm. I tried other orthotropic mechanical characterizations from other sources (Kathry & Mishra, 2012, Finite element analysis of bamboo and joints using steel members under various loading conditions for design study and Chand , Shukla & Sharma, 2008, Analysis of Mechanical Behaviour of Bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) by Using FEM), to no avail.
Of course, the problem could be with the material properties I inputted but I am trying to contact the research team to see directly with them. In the meantime, I am looking to make sure the model itself is not flawed.
It also seems to me that gravity was not accounted for in the numerical of the paper, but it seemed to much of an oversight to be possible (still, the deflection curve of their paper goes through 0).
There are several points I am not quite sure about: after all I am still fairly new to Karamba3D and may still have some things to learn about the inner mechanics of the plugin.
The very first is: should I put eccentricities of the slat-elements of the truss in the definition of their cross-section (directly with the Cross Section box) or as an offset of the beam element (with the ModifyElem box)? I tried both approaches and they seem to yield similar results (max. deflection change by 0.65mm in my latest model).
Second is: is it good practice to subdivide the beam elements in more than one element (and connecting the pieces rigidly) in order to get better results? I imagine some meshing or subdivision is performed when the analysis is run but there is no way of visualizing it (that I found in any case). Subdividing the chord elements seems to give smoother deformation results (though I did not check stress I have to admit). My issue on this topic is that the subdivision of the slat-elements of the web is problematic. On the screenshot below, where the elements are divided in two, lets take the example of node 18. It seems to me that all elements of the diagonal element (28, 29, 34 & 35) are all rigidly connected to the node 18. 28 & 29 are not connected together, independently from 34 & 35. The added rigidity may not be a bad thing for my model, but it is not correct I think? Is there a way of solving the problem?

And here is my GH file (clean enough hopefully): verification-model-V04.gh
Thank you all in advance for any insight (even on the inner logics of Karamba)!
