Flexible reinforcement systems for spatially curved concrete structures Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The design society shows an increasing interest for spatially curved architecture such as blob structures or shells. Concrete is the ideal material for these curved structures as it can be poured into any shape. However, to facilitate the construction of these curved structures, not only solutions for the traditionally labour intensive formwork but also for the steel reinforcement must be found. Therefore, we have studied the use of flexible ...
