  • Emerging technique of shooting concrete over welded wire fabric to form hollow columns, beams, and arches with high moment of inertia at low material weight.
  • Construction method used in the Mexicali project, combining earth and concrete.
  • Construction technique used at West Dean Visitor's Centre for complex concrete pieces with herringbone brick panels.
  • A hybrid system combining interior wood post-and-beam for vertical forces with exterior thin concrete shell for horizontal and shear forces.
  • The property of smooth-unfolding processes where each operation is sufficiently defined by the context of previous operations, eliminating need for complex pre-specifications.
  • Construction method using a lightweight wall of ribs covered with plywood so the whole acts as a box beam; extended to hollow concrete members for high moment of inertia.
  • Making molds for small ornamental segments and inserting pre-cast concrete blocks into a chase in poured concrete walls.
  • A construction paradigm in which each operation naturally generates the next, producing unique adaptation without complex drawings.
