Data Protocols for Composite Components of the BUGA Fiber Pavilion (Website) and Maison Fibre (Website) as outcomes of the Feedback-Based Computational Method and Multi-Scalar Design and Evaluation Toolset, described in 'Concurrent Computational Design and Modeling of Structural Coreless-Wound Building Components,' published in Automation in Construction.
The data is the output of the developed design tools and provides a comprehensive geometric and semantic description of the composite components for production. It includes general parameters, defining anchor point counts, material parameters, and a geometrical base plane. The syntax layup provides a layer breakdown of the components including layer count and hooking types. Syntax indices provide the fiber topology of every fiber pattern using a list of anchor point IDs. Abstract path points provide a geometrical description of all fiber patterns by discretizing them into points along equal-length segments. A roving count is provided to give an overview of material amount and distribution. The winding point orientation provides the location and orientation vectors of the anchor points and the geometry section provides geometrical information on the frame assembly.
