@thaifoodtakeaway 12 дней назад

@@fishmarketer I've learned that there is a company in Germany that makes curved glass, and that the building follows the Feng-Shui principles. Apart from that, just fluff. The B1M videos these days are just reading out the PR BS from the builders with little or no research and with a sponsors forced in sideways to make it look relevant. Some more information about the building would have been nice.

@taterkaze9428 20 дней назад

How will any damaged curved glass panels be replaced a few years from now? "There are only two suppliers in the world". I'm sure duplicates of all curved surfaces weren't produced before construction because of cost. This design carries a unique risk. Even if the probability of future panel damage is low it's still an unmanaged risk. Typhoons happen. High winds pick things up and fling them into buildings.

Interesting to see how bamboo scaffolding is still used in Hong Kong even for a construction project of this scale.

@alexandercarder2281 20 дней назад

Because it’s the best for scaffolding. Better than our tube metal. More flexible.

@vehicles_n_stuff 19 дней назад

It’s cheap, strong, takes a long time to rot, and almost infinitely available. It’s too bad it isn’t used in more places.

@EleanorPeterson 18 дней назад

Yep. Bamboo is extraordinary stuff. It's the exact natural equivalent of a modern synthetic epoxy-carbon composite: long, extremely tough fibres embedded in a flexible waterproof matrix. If an engineer suggested using carbon-fibre rods, poles and tubes to make scaffolding, I don't suppose anybody would question his idea... Until he told them how much each tube would cost.😲 Synthetic composites are light and tough, but they have poor abrasion resistance and need careful handling. A typical building site is a brutal environment. Things get crushed, dropped, trodden on and driven over. UV degradation can be a problem, too. Overall, synthetic scaffolding would be too delicate and expensive for normal use. Steel scaffolding is certainly robust, but it's heavy and expensive when compared to bamboo, which is light, tough, elastic, UV resistant, waterproof, and ridiculously cheap. It grows so quickly that you can actually see it move hour-by-hour. A final point which might have some relevance nowadays is that bamboo's 'green' credentials are impeccable. It's non-polluting, has a tiny carbon-footprint, and is totally recyclable.

@krishpatel3773 18 дней назад

@@EleanorPeterson Hey there, I just wanted to get further insight regarding bamboo for scaffolding. Why don't we see bamboo used more commenly around the world? Going off the top of my head here so I may be wrong but wasn't there a point where bamboo was used a lot more commenly. If I were to guess, I'd say that it doesn't portray the same level of safety/strength to regulators and/or individuals/companies haha. Or perhaps just the talent or skill is lacking elsewhere.

Finally a poignant comment

@f.remplakowski 20 дней назад

CATIA should really do an Autodesk and let students get easy and free access to their software (with full tutorials), they will eventually be your paying customers and you need a large group of expert users to become a common industry standard. If you gatekeep and nickel and dime them they will only learn the software if someone else is paying for it and sugar daddies/mommies in construction are in short supply. From the videos I have seen it's a very impressive piece of software that architects should have been using all along. Just difficult to find when you're a student, so you will go with what is easily available, free and what your peers use. We all know how much degrees in architecture cost along with the other costs associated with it. Most students will not be spending money on extra software they will have to pay for anyway if they have their own practice.

@Roatanlova68fmp71lliiiak 20 дней назад

Right?

@pkramer962 20 дней назад

It means that you can make any shape you want. Especially with curvature often times there are restrictions to what you can get. This is not necessary for most "normal" design work but especially in aerospace design it is important. One example i can make is if you want to make a circle using splines you can get something close to a circle with Bezier Splines. But if you want a precise circle you need to use something like NURBS which takes more effort but gets you exactly what you want.

@Alone47 20 дней назад

Why have a misleading thumbnail like that? It gives off the wrong impression in regards to what the video is about IMO. I liked the video (watched it fully) but the thumbnail gives me the impression that it's meant to be clickbait and not to accurately represent the angle of the video. Edit: They changed it, it isn't misleading anymore now. For the record, the thumbnail before featured two images of the skyscraper: one titled "render" looking very shiny and futuristic, and the other titled "reality" which was the building when it was under construction without reflective surfaces - suggesting they did a bad job or didn't finish it.
