| dc.description.abstract | The lightweight structure system is an effort to optimize
the structure to distribute the load efficiently.
Unfortunately, students often have difficulty imagining
the learning outcomes application in the real world when
studying light structural systems. However, the use of
the scalar model can still explain several essential
aspects of a lightweight structural system, one of which
is the effect of connection and formation of material
components on the structural capability. Therefore, this
paper aims to bridge the learning process by utilizing
digital devices from the concept stage of structural
modeling with the help of software (Rhinoceros,
Grasshopper, and Kangaroo) to the realization process
using laser cutting. The method used is a semiexperimental method that applies Hooke's law principle,
which produces a shell structure system with a digital
fabrication approach that utilizes a lightweight material,
namely, corrugated paper board, as the primary material.
This paper concludes that digital technology and digital
fabrication processes can help students understand the
concept of lightweight structures because they can use
computer simulations, cut them using laser cutting, and
assemble them in the field in a series of simultaneous
processes. | en_US |
