About
Majid Hojjat is a leading researcher at the intersection of computational design, digital fabrication, and advanced construction materials. His work focuses on developing novel, sustainable manufacturing processes for complex concrete structures, challenging the resource-intensive nature of traditional formwork. Hojjat’s most notable contribution is the "Robotic knitcrete" project, which pioneered the use of 3D-knitted formwork combined with robotic shotcrete to fabricate a pedestrian bridge. This landmark achievement, detailed in a 2023 paper with 17 citations, demonstrates a scalable method for creating lightweight, geometrically complex shells with minimal waste. By integrating robotic additive manufacturing with textile reinforcement, Hojjat addresses critical limitations in labor and material efficiency. His research has been recognized for its potential to transform architectural construction, earning him a reputation as an innovator in digital concrete fabrication. With a growing body of work that bridges computational design and structural engineering, Hojjat continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in sustainable, automated building technologies.
