| Summary: | This paper presents a digital manufacturing strategy for architecture and construction, which allows the production of high complexity objects. This piece demonstrates the use of CAD / CAM technologies in the manufacturing process trough Contouring method, which translate the general geometry of the building in two-dimensional components and is applied by architects like Bernard Franken. The paper show partial results from the undergraduate dissertation, Virtual Ways, by the author, through its application to a model. As a result, the article analyzes the differences between the use of digital and traditional manufacturing technology, emphasizing its use in Brazil |
