In 2008, the Art Gallery of Ontario re-opened after a major expansion and renovation by architect Frank Gehry. A significant part of the new construction is the glass curtain wall supported by glued-laminated timber (glulam). The challenging fabrication procedure, erection sequence and hidden connection design were all possible thanks to the tremendous advances in 3D CAD systems (BIM) and CNC technologies since 2000.
Cette présentation se tiendra en anglais.”
