8 Abstract Tectonics is the project of following rules. It is the process of accepting what is given to us and making the best of it. We, as architects, assemble these predetermined components without question, albeit with potentially great results, but there is more latitude to these rules than we realize. What if our components were special? What if each subdivision of architecture was like a component on a spaceship; tailored and considered, necessary for the life of the project. What if its existence, experience, and investigation brought us life and curiosity? What if we felt like explorers of endless curiosity, every day of our lives? Tectonics is the science or art of construction, both in relation to use and artistic design not only the activity of making the materially requisite construction that answers certain needs, but rather to the activity that raises this construction to an art form. (Maulden) The means of producing the components of construction requires a process of design. It requires scientific experimentation, engineering, chemistry, physics, and more. But it is not architecture. This thesis holds that architecture is the effect achieved by the thoughtful and intentional assemblies and constructions of these components, for human use. However, when beginning to question these components, one must concede that the components of construction are too well designed and time-tested to be overturned by a single thesis. The tools which form and manufacture these artifacts are too well developed and proven over thousands of years to be reasonably questioned to any productive end. The manufactories and markets speak too clearly to waste time denying the practicality of steel, concrete, and lumber. But this does not mean that we must accept whatever they produce, it only means that we must intervene with greater knowledge of the practices of how steel is milled, how lumber is prepared, how glass is floated, and how these all interface. The invisible variable in this equation is the jig. It is not the material, it is not the tool, and it is not the design; it is the artifact which enables the interface of the three. It is here that the designer and the architect can produce variation in the closed world of tectonics. If the architectural potentials of construction components can be opened, and the problems of different assemblies can be solved, infinite new potentials emerge. The world of tectonics suddenly opens. The rules are changed, specialized, and simultaneously made more accessible. The linear relationship between the designer, producer, and constructor becomes cyclical, and the architect has the opportunity to choreograph the process. By understanding the materials, processes, design, and jigging of building components, the limitations of actualizing designs can be eroded, challenging the relationship between designer, builder, and user. 07
9 The idea of open tectonics will be explored through three lenses of practice, project, and theory. These lenses will be the criteria of decision-making throughout the design process. 08

13 Jig: (n) a device that holds a piece of work and guides the tools operating on it. -Oxford Dictionary FIXTURE FOR MATERIAL LIQUID MATERIAL The process of making and using a jig involves a design intention, a tool, a material, and a physical or digital object to serve as the guide and fixture. + GUIDE FOR TOOL PATH MOLD The jig is conceptually and practically distinct from formwork. For the purpose of this study, the jig will be the focus of research. = JIG FORMWORK 12
14 Jig definition Physical 13
15 A digital model or line drawing is also a jig, by definition. It guides the path of a mechanized tool. This thesis acknowledges a continuity between physical and digital fabrication, and the concept of the jig is an important piece in understanding this continuity. 14
16 Jig definition Digital 15
17 A particular jig corresponds to a specific tool. This necessitates an understanding of tool, material, and design goals to make use of the jig. 16
18 Jigs + tools Physical 17
19 Digital fabrication follows the same rules, with specific potentials and limitations of material, design geometries, and tooling. In order to emphasize the continuity between digital and physical fabrication, this thesis holds that digital jigging is a more accurate conception of the processes known as digital fabrication 18
20 Jigs + tools Digital Physical 19
21 The proper combination of jigs, tools, and materials enables repeatability, precision, and potentially irregular geometries for the actualization of a given design. In the production of architectural components, the jig is constantly present. 20
22 Jigs + tools + materials * *large hydraulic machine guiding placement of roller 21
23 Design intention, tools, materials, and jigs form a matrix of fabrication and production processes. Each must inform and be conscious of the other. This thesis will investigate the extent of the influence of design intention and jigging on architectural components, accepting the practicality of existing tooling and materials. 22

25 Within the basic matrix of building production and fabrication, different projects demonstrate different hierarchies of value. The open tectonic project proposes a restructuring of this hierarchy within architectural discourse. 24

31 The tectonic project values material and tooling most highly, with the jig as the next necessary (yet invisible) variable. Design intentions, while undeniably powerful, aim to architecturally manifest the existing logics of material, production, and construction processes. 30

39 The open tectonic project proposes to shift the hierarchy of the fabrication matrix. Material must necessarily drive the designs, but the architectural intentions for the material has the opportunity to be in closer dialogue, due to the higher value placed on determining factor of the jig. 38

41 The assembly of building components, no matter their nature of production, is at the root of architecture. The caribbean hut was Gottfried Semper s study of the origins and archetype of man-made space. The dinstinction between structure and cladding are important to the development of this thesis, and will be used as a means of analysis. 40
42 Archetypal assembly Gottfried Semper, Caribbean Hut Study,
43 The distinction between primary and secondary structure is essential to understanding the nature of building assembly. It is a practical reality of the creation of space, and of mediating primary structure and panelized cladding. 42
44 Archetypal assembly Primary structure Secondary structure Panelized cladding Assembly 43
45 As architectural components begin to be re-jigged, certain flexibilities must emerge in the processes of assembly. Pictured left is an example of a completely open assembly. Nearly anything can be added or subtracted, while maintaining the integrety of the design and construction. Pictured right is an example of a limitedly open assembly, which is able to be redesigned, changed, and modified within the parameters of its design and constructional integrity. 44

53 This thesis intends to position its assemblies along this spectrum, creating an architecture that is designed and intentional, while embracing the values of improvisation. 52

56 Theory of details Complimentary to this thesis is an architectural ambition, which guides the directions and decisions of re-jigging. Edward Ford s theory on the categories of details is important in the consideration of new assemblies. The detail as joint is of particular interest to this thesis. This focus enables an architectural theory to guide the nature of the assemblies engendered by the study of the jig s role in the production of architectural components. Detail as joint details whole Detail as autonomous design details whole details/architecture details/architecture ASSEMBLY ARTICULATED 55
57 Drawing from David Pye s concept of energy transformations in The Nature of Design, the articulation of assemblies can also articulate statically contained energy within assemblies. The project of open tectonics seeks to enhance this aspect of spatial experience with the alteration of the components and their assemblies. 56
58 Articulation of energy Peter Zumthor, Stalinset Memorial Assemblies are articulated in a way that expresses the forces of and between components 57
59 There is energy contained in all structures, but as with assembly, it must be intentionally articulated or suppressed. Within this assembly, one can almost feel the materials and components straining to mantain stasis. 58

63 a * * b If the material (steel) and tooling (milling rollers) are kept constant, what latitude is there to change the design of a wide-flange steel section? The jigging, in this context, is the information guiding the placement of the rollers. 62 *large hydraulic machine guiding placement of roller

65 Rollers could move in and out, creating swells and dips, moving in harmony or dissonance. 64

67 Depending on the speed by which the steel passes through the rollers, multiple nodes could be developed. 66
68 Wide-flange beam studies a 67
69 By varying the angle of the rollers, an ad hoc quality begins to emerge out of the rigidity of the I-section. 68

73 If the fabrication of basic joints was re-jigged, how would this affect the openness of the assembly? 72
74 Open assembly studies 73
75 The idea of overlapping panels is a potentially fruitful area in the idea of openness. The construction, tolerances, and qualities are greater than precise reveals or butt-jointss. 74
76 Open assembly studies 75
77 In exploring the articulation of assemblies, as well as the energy within assemblies, specific materials were hypothesized as existing exlusively in compression or tension. This idea is consistent with the nature of a truss, and a mash-up ermerged. 76

92 Ambitions My ambitions for this project are to develop a simple, cohesive, highly specific and developed design. Concetely, some of the products will include: Large scale axonometric drawings of assembly and space, large enough to feel human scale Large scale model, using non-representational materials, but materials that communicate, in miniature, the atmosphere of the space Many, many iterations for the three aspects of the project: jigging, open assemblies, and articulated energy Studies of site usage, to determine how openness ought to apply to the Syracuse markets And as a reminder to myself: DO DISCOVERY REALISM DON T INVENTION SURREALISM 91
