The study examines the main possible approaches for a generative use of topology optimization aimed at the study of the conditions of “adaptability” of façades in architecture. The analysis regards the possibilities of technological transfer of topology optimization methods and strategies to the conception of framing and enclosure components of building envelopes, through the explanation of some experiments and applications. The topology optimization is analyzed and supported as the possible area within which it should be possible to sustain new forms of calibration of material densities, of morpho-typological sizes and structural performances with the least material used and energy wasted.

Abstract

The study examines the main possible approaches for a generative use of topology optimization aimed at the study of the conditions of “adaptability” of façades in architecture. The analysis regards the possibilities of technological transfer of topology optimization methods and strategies to the conception of framing and enclosure components of building envelopes, through the explanation of some experiments and applications. The topology optimization is analyzed and supported as the possible area within which it should be possible to sustain new forms of calibration of material densities, of morpho-typological sizes and structural performances with the least material used and energy wasted.
