摘要

鑑於數位設計和先進的製造技術，木材構造，尤其是互卡，已重新成為當代建築領域的焦點。大多數關於互卡結構的研究都集中在木板的卡榫形式上，和關注於線性木材單元的互卡接頭的設計實驗。在這種情況下，這項研究對實現三米高的互卡木構造涼亭、大規模製造提出了挑戰。

為了重新詮釋傳統的木材構造，本文定義了構造的主要特徵：樣式、互卡構造和關節。這項研究重新思考了傳統樣式作為空間交流，新的意義和作用。換句話說，它說明了樣式可以結合建築環境、文化和先進技術，新構造的實用方法。

在樣式研究的基礎上，持續研究關節構造，將接合的單元和整個構造透過互鎖的接頭結合在一起。當它們有選擇性地隱藏和顯現其構造時，可以有定義和表達建築物外立面的可能性，從而表達超出其構造以外的某些形式。

基於前期的研究，使用CNC機銑床對所有260個木材單元和812個卡槽，實現了完整的1：1模型。特殊的木材單元在幾何圖案、互卡構造和先進的製造技術的結合下，提供了複雜的空間表達。它暗示了關節可以提供有效的方式和想法，來表達場所的特殊性，同時具體化為建築的物理形式。

In the light of digital design and advanced fabrication technologies, wood tectonics, especially interlocking joints, have regained focus in the contemporary architectural realm. Most of the researches on interlocking joints focus on joint geometries for timber plates. Meanwhile, there has been attention to the design experiments of interlocking joints for linear timber elements. In this context, this research challenges mass customization of interlocking joints with the realization of a timber pavilion at a three-meter height.

In order to reinterpret traditional wood tectonics, this paper defines key features of tectonics: pattern, interlocking joint, and articulation. This research rethinks the meaning and the role of traditional patterns as new diagrams of spatial communication. In other words, it suggests that patterns could be practical means to revitalize new tectonics that can synthesize built environment, culture, and advanced technology.

Based on the researches on patterns, it proceeds to study tectonic articulation that unite articulated elements with the whole work by means of an interlocking joint. It could define the possibilities of building facades as articulate when they selectively conceal and reveal their constitution, allowing the expression of something beyond their construction.

All earlier studies considered, the full scale 1:1 model has been realized for all the 260 timber elements and 812 notches with a CNC machine. The particlized timber elements give complex spatial articulation in the synthesis of geometric patterns, interlocking joints, and advanced fabrication technologies. It hints that articulation can provide useful sources and ideas for expressing specificities of place and materializing into a physical form of architecture.
