建筑哲学博士-设计技术（材料和装配体）

认识到建筑元素的创建方式对项目的形式和性能都有直接的影响，最近的建筑讨论使人们对设计与制造之间的联系重新产生了兴趣。建筑学院拥有大量资源，可为围绕制造，新材料和新方法的人造建筑系统的各种关注问题进行世界一流的调查。<br> <br>数字建筑实验室的装配交换标准该小组与美国钢结构学会和预制混凝土学会等贸易团体合作，以确定整个行业的协作和数据交换系统。数字制造实验室是世界上最大的工业CNC设计实验室，拥有超过15,000平方英尺的传统和机器人制造及测试设备，专门用于建筑工业制造项目。
Recent architectural discourse places a renewed interest in the connection between design and making, recognizing that how building elements are created has a direct impact on the formal and performance aspects of the project. The School of Architecture has numerous resources that contribute to a world class inquiry into the spectrum of concerns surrounding fabrication, new materials and new ways of thinking about manufactured buildings systems. The Digital Building Lab's assembly exchange standards group works with trade groups as diverse as the American Institute of Steel Construction and the Precast Concrete Institute to identify the systems of collaboration and data exchange throughout the industry. The Digital Fabrication Lab is the world's largest industrially CNC design lab, with over 15,000 square feet of traditional and robotic fabrication and testing equipment dedicated to building industry fabrication projects.
