2.1 General Principle and Curvature Conventions

The practice of land-forming to cast shell structures becomes an inspiration in the Sub-Additive process: the Philips pavilion at the Brussels Expo ‘58 was one of the first modern examples to panelize a large double curved surface through land-forming [10]. Casting on a shaped hyperbolic sand form, multiple panels were produced as sections of the surface, transferred to the site, and post tensioned to create the structure. Additional seminal references of sand pile formwork include the work of Heinz Isler and Mutsuro Sasaki, - who both used this method to construct double curvature shell structures [8, 9].
