I enrolled in this class because I needed my 400 lvl electives and I thought that this class would be extremely interesting.  I&#8217;ve always been interested in what you can do with 3D printing and also with the architecture and design that goes along with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project I chose to look at for this assignment is the helix bridge located in Singapore.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Helix_Bridge\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Helix_Bridge<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th>Architect<\/th><td>COX Group Pte Ltd (Australia) and Architects 61 (Singapore)<\/td><\/tr><tr><th>Designer<\/th><td>ARUP Pte Ltd (Australia)<\/td><\/tr><tr><th>Constructed by<\/th><td>Sato Kogyo Pte Ltd and TTJ Design and Engineering Pte Ltd<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The computational methods used in this project are a helix repeating design that wraps around the pedestrian bridge.  I find it compelling because it&#8217;s an extremely pretty bridge right in the heart of Singapore.  I really enjoy the way it lights up in a double helix pattern similar to DNA, and that it relates to the human experience by being a pedestrian bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image-10.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image-10.png 500w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image-10-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/handandmachine.org\/classes\/computational_fabrication\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image-10-380x269.png 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, My name is Andrew Foster and I am majoring in computer science while minoring in business administration.
