Beam nodes

“Beam nodes often have a unique geometry: three or four beams of different width, height and angle must be assembled together on the same post.”
About the project

Using traditional methods, producing the formwork for these structures consumes single-use materials and time. It is carried out in several phases and can constitute a source of non-quality. The use of a digital model linked to 3D printing allows quick and one-go production of this complex part.

Other advantages for beam nodes: reduction in the arduousness of the work for our companions, an elimination of successive assembling and finally a saving of space for scrap metal workers.
