Concrete Continuum: Concept, Calculus, & Construction Connected Through Parametric Representation
This paper outlines a custom-built suite of scripts that automate?the processes of reinforced concrete design and is directly linked to the parametric?design model of the architect. The workflow creates a design and engineering feedback loop for early phase schematic design. Using this system, the design geometry is generated?and then deconstructed into a Finite Element model.?The workflow executes a static analysis then calculates rebar size and placement, and finally generates fabrication draw

The Birth of Comedy
Take the topical satire of Have I Got News For You and mix thoroughly with the adolescent humour of The Inbetweeners, add in a healthy dose of Monty Python-esque absurdity and finish off with lashings of songs and dances. Then serve it all up to a baying crowd in an atmosphere more like a football match than a theatre stage. Welcome to the world of Aristophanes, ‘the father of comedy’.
The rise of democracy in ancient Greece produced one of the greatest ever flowerings of culture and gave
