An Unfinished Manifesto for Stereotomy 2.0 [PDF]

open access: yesNexus Network Journal, 2018
The aim of the article is to describe the historical background and the birth of a relatively new discipline consisting in the digital evolution of classical stereotomy. “Stereotomy 1.0” comprises the early development of the discipline primarily related to stonecutting.

Stereotomy: Architecture and Mathematics

open access: yes, 2019
Stereotomy is the art of building with small structural elements, geometrically refined, which allow the construction of architectural systems with triple value: aesthetic, static, and functional. A sense of constructive rationalization is inherent to the discipline of stereotomy which permits the optimization of structural form through the knowledge ...

A Numerical Method for the Funicular Analysis of Masonry Vaults Accounting for Stereotomy, Finite Strength and Finite Friction

open access: yesEngineering Structures, 2023
The funicular analysis of curved masonry structures is addressed, considering the stereotomy of the voussoirs, a limited compressive strength, and a limited friction coefficient.

Stereotomy of Wave Jointed Blocks

2016
This paper focuses on developing a system for using 6-axis robotic arms to cut interlocking blocks with wire. Tracing the trajectory of stereotomy through millennia of practice, an extrapolation is presented that stereotomy will serve increased formal and structural complexity.

About Building Stereotomy

2016
This contribution tries to reintroduce Stereotomy within the field of “research by design”: the discipline, in fact, can be used as a means of re-composition of the design, project and execution phases. Starting from the origin of this break-up, the focus moves to the actual value of geometric and formal prefiguration and to the validity criteria that ...
