Abstract

This poster presents the "Cut Fold Span Connect" studio, a fourth-year architecture fabrication course supported by a $2400 material donation from the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC). The studio explores innovative structural systems through the manipulation of sheet steel using CNC plasma cutting and folding techniques. Emphasizing a low waste/no waste approach, the project prioritizes material efficiency, retaining all elements of the cut pieces except for necessary bends.

Keywords: Steel, Digital Fabrication, CNC Plasma Cutting, Material Exploration
