Parametric Design for Large Span Structure

Abstract

There has been immense growth seems in few years in large span structures in architecture, because of its own positive characteristics. But while designing, the designers face much problem and have to deal with its aesthetic values and technical problems like loads, forces, materials. Architects or designers restrict their thoughts, imaginations because of mentioned above limitations. Now, a question rises – How can we solve the issues and find a best solution while designing a large span structure? Parametric design became an inseparable term of architecture day by day in this new era of architecture. Parametric is not only aesthetically pleasing but also helps to solve the visual, perspective materials and structural errors. To solve the large span structure error and problems we can go through parametric design process to find a best possible solution. In this paper discussed about parametric design and large span structure, parametric design process and how computer technology helps to reach the aimed goal.
