Abstract: A new algorithm is introduced to directly reconstruct geometric models of building façades from terrestrial laser scanning data without using either manual intervention or a third-party, computer-aided design (CAD) package. ...

Abstract: Automated conversion of point cloud data from laser scanning into formats appropriate for structural engineering holds great promise for exploiting increasingly available aerially and terrestrially based pixelized data for ...

Abstract: This paper describes an investigation into the use of advanced manufacturing techniques for the creation of a new class of intermeshed steel connections that rely on neither welding nor bolting. The project detailed herein ...
