13. Implications and applications¶
Murjan/مرجان¶
3D Clay Printing solution to enhance marina life by building substance eco-sustainable material .
About me¶
An architect , computational designer ,Product maker and intrested in suustainability and heritage and during this research i will be using sustainable - eco freindly material .
where is this project locate?¶
It is in middle east , Jordan and exactly Aqaba Gulf.
As it is a specia,l place for coral diversity worldwide acording to UNESCO .
Some of case studies worldwide has inspired me related to modules design and substances using clay and some using concrete with 3d printing and the positive impact has inspired me alot !!
During the case study i understood one of the logic about 2 layers module - the base layer is for regidity and stabilization and the second moore about biomimicry shape design. which even worked great as it looks !
shaft design for module that helps with the water flow inside it and it can be refelected on coral reef design to allow water to go through and minimize the presssure.
Bio /Composite material¶
in this case study i found using some of scaffold and mold design is helpfupl in this matter espicially if i needed to create shapes or test for some materials before thinking about mix it with clay .
Referances and stakholders¶
During this research i made many talkd and disscussions with marina biologisits and engineers in aqaba to understand the situation in depth and here one book about corals shapes at Aqaba gulf.
Challenges¶
Some of estimated challenges i meight face as clay is still in developing stage and the clay types in jodan are many but with less documentation about!
so i will test moe the clays and here this image was during a workshop in the maker space lab in Amman, jordan with cristeano as a clay expert to explore clay 3d printing and using some of local ones.
Some of the people who meight benifit from thies research development.
