Louter, Christian & Pfarr, Daniel | BE-AM Symposium 2023

Topic: Thin glass composites with 3D printed polymer cores Speaker: Christian Louter & Daniel Pfarr Oganization: TU Delft & TU Dresden Thin glass is mainly used for displays on electronic devices, but it also offers interesting characteristics for architectural applications. Due to its high strength and small thickness the glass can easily be bent in architecturally appealing curvatures, while the small glass thickness (≤ 2 mm) offers a significant weight reduction compared to traditional window glazing. Research at TU Delft and TU Dresden focuses on exploiting these beneficial characteristics for the creation of lightweight composite façade panels. More specifically, composite panels are developed that consist of thin glass outer facings which are adhesively bonded to an inner stiffening 3D-printed open-cell polymer core. Besides the benefits of high strength, high stiffness and low weight, the composite panels also offer the potential to influence daylight entry through customisation of the 3D-printed core pattern. The presentation provides an overview of the research, from the initial concept until the latest research findings. Led by scientists of the Technical University of Darmstadt, BE-AM | Built Environment Additive Manufacturing connects researchers and users interested in 3D printing in construction. The platform spans architecture, civil engineering and manufacturing automation. Annual highlights are the BE-AM | Exhibition and the BE-AM | Symposium at Formnext in Frankfurt/Main. This year’s exhibitors and speakers will showcase and discuss work from 9 companies in the industry, 10 universities and 2 research institutions. The event is hosted by the Formnext fair in Frankfurt, and organized by Prof. Ulrich Knaack, Prof. Oliver Tessmann, Dr.-Ing. Philipp Rosendahl, Dr. Nadja Gaudillière-Jami, Christin Gandyra, Emanuel Nowak and Malcolm Unger from the Technical University of Darmstadt.
