The case: Overview and context<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n

Apex Wall was designed and 3D printed in collaboration with MDT Flexible Products from Kolding and is a remarkable example of how topology optimisation can revolutionise the construction of 3D-printed, load-bearing elements.<\/p>\n

By leveraging modern 3D software and technology, it has been possible to significantly reduce material consumption without compromising the structure\u2019s strength and load-bearing capacity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n
