Venerdì 29 maggio, all'interno delle attività didattiche del corso Gusci e Membrane: ricerca e ottimizzazione di forma (docenti Stefano Gabriele e Valerio Varano) il prof. Yan Xiao | Zhejiang University terrà il seminario
From Bamboo to engineered glubam structures
Venerdi 29 Maggio 2026 | ore 14.00
Dipartimento di Architettura | Aula Ersoch
Largo Giovanni Battista Marzi, 10 - Roma | ex-Mattatoio
Seminar Overview
The seminar will introduce bamboo as a sustainable structural material and then focus on Glubam, an engineered glue -laminated bamboo system developed for structural applications . Starting from a general overview of bamboo - based construction, the lecture will connect material innovation with digital design, parametric modelling, digital twin manufacturing and robotic fabrication. The final part will address spherical shell and dome structures, where form optimization, tessellation, joint detailing and manufacturing precision become central to the design process.
