THE CONSTRUCTIONAL STRUCTURE AND ITS RELATION TO FORM IN LATE CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE

The scientific and technological progress that we are witnessing today can be considered as two main pillars of the development of any society. This in turn has a clear impact on the development of architecture on both its theoretical and practical sides. Consequently, architectural design is influenced by this technological development. The architectural and structural designers began using the latest technologies in the design and implementation processes In order to reflect the architectural output, especially in the field of digitalization, which rely mainly on technology in all aspects of formality, construction and informatics. The aim of the research is to demonstrate the relationship between architectural form and constructional structure on the timeline, which can be determined from postmodern to the era of continuous digital revolution by shedding light on the nature of the relationship and its philosophy between form and structure, as well as knowledge of the sources of knowledge affecting their production and form. The research concluded by noting that the attention shifted from (making the form) to (finding form) by employing many digital generation techniques that varied their intellectual references and formal possibilities between non-Euclidean and nonquantitative geometry, algorithmic and parametric numerical modeling, and genetic algorithm, which provided a rich repertoire of remittances that contributed to the concept of formal possibilities.
