Föreställ dig en tegel och motor butik där entrén är delvis blockerad, produkter dåligt organiserade, utan ordentliga skyltar. Skulle detta vara en kundvänlig butik att handla i? Skulle det ge kunderna en bra upplevelse? Kommer det göra att kunden kommer tillbaka igen? Skulle inte tro det.
Sinds de komst van de computer zijn de ontwerpmogelijkheden sterk toegenomen. De vertaling van het ontwerp gebeurt echter nog vaak via plannen, die dan op de werf met traditionele bouwmethoden worden uitgevoerd. Al de informatie die digitaal beschikbaar is gaat als het ware verloren bij deze stap. Digitale fabricatie brengt hier verandering in, door een directe verbinding te maken tussen het ontwerp en de productie. Het reëel object is als het ware een exacte kopie van het virtueel model.
SPIF staat voor Single Point Incremental Forming. Door met behulp van een industriële robot het metaal geleidelijk aan in te duwen volgens een bepaalde gereedschapsbaan (toolpath), is er een grote verscheidenheid van geometrie mogelijk. Aangezien er geen mal nodig is voor dit proces, is het ideaal voor prototyping. Ook in architectuur is deze ontwerpvrijheid uiteraard een grote meerwaarde.
Via één of meerdere test cases zou ik de mogelijkheden van deze techniek in een architecturale context willen onderzoeken. Mogelijke toepassingen zijn bijvoorbeeld een zelfdragende gevel of een dakconstructie die door zijn geometrie geen dragende onderstructuur meer nodig heeft. Gebaseerd op een bestaand project van een carport, heb ik als voorbeeld een structuur gemodelleerd en onderworpen aan een bepaalde belasting. In het tweede geval is op dezelfde geometrie een grid van ribben toegevoegd, en duidelijk is dat de doorbuiging aanzienlijk verbetert.
Aangezien het een integraal proces van ontwerp tot productie is, lijkt het me interessant om dit binnen één software af te handelen. Zo heb ik getracht om het toolpath, nodig om de robot aan te sturen, ook binnen Grasshopper te genereren. Als output geeft dit een reeks met coördinaten en richtingsvectoren.
Na het structureel optimaliseren van het ontwerp en de vertaalstap naar de robot-instructies, kan de productie beginnen. Als laatste aandachtspunt zullen de afzonderlijke elementen moeten geassembleerd worden, zodat zij werkelijk functioneren als één geheel.

Post Response # 1: Hey class, I would like to enlist the March of Dimes to assist with providing support for pregnant women and mothers of small children in my community. I love this organization because they believe that all babies deserve the best possible start. March of Dimes has been around for over 80 years and has helped millions of babies. They do allot to help educate people about best practices for expecting mothers and babies. When my close friend’s son was in the NICU, they helped provide her and her family comfort and support.
On Saturday, April 18th myself and three close friends will walk three miles at City Park to help to raise funds to support research, advocacy and programs for the health of all moms and babies. I did this last year as well and it was a blast! We bring our kids and come together to celebrate our experiences and beautiful children. It brings the community together and we help raise money.
CBO’s support the community. According to the U.S. Department of Education (2004), the term community-based organization (CBO) means “a public or private nonprofit organization of demonstrated effectiveness that (A) is representative of a community or significant segments of a community; and (B) provides educational or related services to individuals in the community.” Technology has become increasingly important to manage operations and develop solutions.

Post Response 2: Hello Everyone, I have chosen the Autism Society as my community-based organization (CBO) to assist with providing services to autism in my community as this is an issue that hits close to home as a few of my friends have children with Autism. Living in small community Autism resources are not readily available as they are for cities at least 45 minutes or more away from our town. Shawano does, however, have an organization called Bridge the Gap, which does assist with this population. However, this is not enough. I would enlist the help of the Autism Society with funding to help this organization help even more people, provide services that are not yet available in the community, providing funding to not only the program but to families to afford these services and provide education for the community, among other items as well. The mission of the Autism Society of Greater Wisconsin is, “…to provide a community for individuals affected by autism, their families, and professionals who serve them. Our goal is to increase the quality of life for those affected by autism and respond to the emerging needs of the autism community” (Autism Society of Greater Wisconsin, 2020). With this mind, I would want these efforts to improve the lives of people and the families affected by autism by providing support, accurate information and resources, referrals, education, and community development. I would also enlist the help of community members and families affected by Autism to assist in writing lette ...

Success Tips For New Businesses
Develop a solid business model, which is more important than a business plan. (Check
out Running Lean by Ash Maurya.)
Get business advice and training. Use included resources to help prepare a business
plan. We hope the included resources will help you with this!
Determine the right legal structure for your business.
Find the perfect location that is customer friendly, safe, affordable, and is a good fit for
your particular business.
Always find ways to keep costs low and never pay retail. Always overestimate costs and
underestimate revenue. Make sure you have a good budget.
Make sure you have money in your budget to pay yourself, or else you might not get
paid.
Networking and old-fashioned word of mouth are very beneficial for growing your
business. (Check out local organizations such as ASBA. They have great networking
events!)
Be clear on why you wanted to start a business.
Make sure you have an attractive and useful website.
Perfectly price your product or service. (“Pricing Strategies for Small Businesses” by
score.org is a good article on how to price your product!)

Conserve Water & Energy for your New Business!
Water conservation is very important in the desert because of alarming drought
predictions. Water is necessary to keep flowing rivers and their ecosystems and wildlife
alive. From a business standpoint, water conservation is equally as important because it
can save your business a lot of money. Using high efficiency toilets and appliances in
your business can lead to big water and money savings. Did you know that fixing leaks
and dripping faucets could save as many as one trillion gallons of water a year?
The WaterSmart business program in Tucson helps customers and businesses use
water more efficiently and reduce utility and energy expenses. While receiving public
recognition, they evaluate water use, develop water plans, and create water budgets.
(You can call Tucson Water at (520)791-4331 to schedule a site visit.)
Water Sense at work is compilation of the best water efficiency practices to help
businesses reduce facility water use. It provides data, graphs, and other information to
help inform people about how water is wasted and tips to conserve it. (Check out Water
Sense through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency at
www3.epa.gov/wattersense/commercial/bmps.html.)

Why is Tucson a great place to start a business?
Arizona leads in the national average of business self startups! Tucson is also ranked the best
city to start a business!
According to Tucson News Now, here are the rankings as of May 2015:
#1: Tucson
#2: Phoenix
#3: Mesa
#4: Glendale
#5: Tempe
#6: Chandler
#7: Gilbert
#8 Scottsdale
Lea Marquez, president and CEO of the Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, describes this
city as a university-based town that is enhanced by Mexican cultural influences. And in order to
be successful in this town, business owners must understand the market. (And the best source
for understanding the Tucson market is in insidetucsonbusiness.com, “Longevity in Tucson,
What’s the Secret to Success?”)
Christine Kymn, the chief economist for the Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy
(SBAOA) in Washington D.C., determined that in Tucson, one of the concerns that business
owners experience is the inability to access or utilize capital. (Please reference the potential
refunding resources in page 4 of the booklet.) Also, that part of Arizona’s thriving aspect in
business also has to do with entrepreneurship – that people here are more likely to open a
business based on the statistics on insidetucsonbusiness.com.
