| Abstract |
In order to manufacture irregular-shaped formwork faster and cheaper than traditional timber or steel formworks, The F3D(Free-Form
Formwork 3D Printer) technology that manufactures cut and laminated EPS(Expanded polystyrene) form-liner by LOM(Laminated object
manufacturing) type 3D printers was adopted. Though EPS have excellent machinability, low density, material cost which make it applicable
to formwork for irregular-shaped structure, EPS may undergo large deformation under lateral pressure exerted by fresh concrete because of its
low compressive strength and elastic modulus. This paper present a process of deformation compensation to reduce deformation of EPS
form-liner. To predict deformation of EPS, 3D finite element analysis considering later pressure by fresh concrete was used and deformation
compensation plan based on analysis result was derived. The proposed compensation method was demonstrated using finite element analysis
and evaluated by measuring geometric error of cylindrical product with various radius, slope, and curvature. |
