I immediately began to think about how we could incorporate this new technology into a future project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TVFCU leaders and its builder for more than 20 years, Construction Consultants, began working with Branch Technology for TVFCU\u2019s new Southside Branch, located at 125 West 20th Street in Chattanooga. While TVFCU has a branch in Downtown Chattanooga, the Southside Branch fills a void in the community for a brick-and-mortar branch in this urban neighborhood less than 2 miles from the city center. Credit union leaders wanted to highlight the characteristics of the Tennessee Valley and to blend into the surroundings of this urban neighborhood for a truly innovative design.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eaeaea7a; padding: 15px 30px; overflow-wrap: break-word; display: flex; align-items: center; border-radius: 4px; box-shadow: -1px 4px 20px 0px #dedede; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 1; padding-right: 30px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 14px;\">Manufacturing on Demand<\/h4>\n<div style=\"display: block;\">Maximize the freedom of your product design, get your ideal realized with 3D printing and other cutting-edge technologies!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a style=\"background-color: #0baee8; color: white; padding: 10px 20px; border-radius: 4px;\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i class=\"fa-fw auxicon auxicon-cloud-upload\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Get Quote<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Branch Technology immediately went to work developing a design concept for the building\u2019s exterior. Platt Boyd, the founder of Branch Technology, knew the Tennessee Valley\u2019s scenic beauty. After seeing the Scenic City and competing in a st<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">art<\/a>up accelerator program called GigTank at The Company Lab in summer 2014, he moved his company to Chattanooga with only three employees and one robot. Their first office was at the Business Development Center\u2019s INCubator that is managed by the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce. Today, they work from a 40,000-square foot manufacturing facility that is equipped with 15 robots.<\/p>\n<p>Branch Technology\u2019s team created a facade design that highlights the beauty of Chattanooga\u2019s natural surroundings and incorporates TVFCU\u2019s iconic wave branding into the design. With the design created, they began <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ing<\/a> the structure. Cellular Fabrication, C-Fab\u00ae is a unique printing method that allows material to solidify in open space, creating a matrix of polymer in virtually any shape. We bring unprecedented design freedom and resource stewardship to next-generation wall systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe undulating facade is patterned to identify entrances and expand around the building\u2019s curvature, serving as wayfinding for visitors,\u201d said John McCabe, advanced concepts team and director of communications at Branch Technology. \u201cVarying degrees of curvature in the sinuous facade pattern nod to TVFCU\u2019s recognizable wave logo. This project is a staple of design freedom offering a one-of-a-kind product outside the literal box of repetitive, conventional construction and facade manufacturing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While the finishing touches on the branch exterior will soon be completed, construction will continue on the branch\u2019s interior. TVFCU plans to open the Southside Branch in late spring 2021. The branch will be TVFCU\u2019s 20th branch and will be a full-service branch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile our competitors are closing branches, we are opening them,\u201d said Fortner. \u201cWe are constantly looking for better ways to serve our membership. We saw a void in our service area and decided to add a branch.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Branch Technology\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a>ed facade facts<\/h2>\n<p>The world\u2019s first freeform <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D print<\/a>ed building facade utilizing the Cellular Fabrication (C-Fab\u00ae) Process.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 This project uses innovative computational design processes to generate complex forms prepared for direct digital manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 The facade employs a 3D printed structure to unlock design freedom while utilizing material composites that complement each other to create a robust, insulative, and lightweight envelope.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Fundamentally different from other existing 3D printing techniques, C-Fab takes advantage of this Freeform capability to create volumetric geometries with 20X less material than traditional layered-deposition techniques while also maximizing structural capacity through geometric optimization.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: grey;\">* This article is reprinted from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.3dprintingmedia.network\/branch-technologys-c-fab-process-used-for-giant-3d-printed-facade\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">3D Printing Media Network<\/a>.
