Curved Folding for Constructing Curved Surface

Abstract

The construction of free-form surfaces requires quite complicated procedures and high costs Curve folding can make the flat material be folded into the corresponding curved surface by the hemming through the arrangement of the curve and the angle of the bending The corrugated iron sheet is bent into a shape-resistant structure and processed according to the characteristics of the infinite extension of the sheet length Therefore it has become a light and cheap building material This research intends to construct a free-form surface with a curve folding method to achieve the shape resistance that can bear its own weight after bending and the accuracy of curve arrangement And then design a set of more efficient and economical construction methods from researching the processing of corrugated iron sheet The research goal is to create a construction logic that different from previous methods by discussing the essence of the folding process Finally according to the limits of the research results summarize the corresponding space requirements and surface types
