Highlights included the official opening by Lord Broers, President of the Royal Academy of Engineering and Chairman of the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee; an interactive presentation from Price and Myers 3D Engineering entitled 'Designed to be made'; and the visual spectacular of large scale rapid prototype models suspended within St Pancras Church crypt - lit by ultra-violet light to stunning effect.
The Anatomy of Engineering was organised and designed by architects Piercy Conner and s! tructural engineers Price and Myers, with sponsorship from SolidWorks.
The exhibition offered the opportunity for anyone with an interest in 3D modelling, architecture or structural engineering to discover more about the possibilities for 3D modelling as an intrinsic part of the architectural process, and how solutions such as SolidWorks are enabling architects to turn the most dramatic and ambitious concepts into reality.
"The support for this exhibition by the architectural and AEC industries has been extraordinary," says Anne Busson, Marketing Manager at SolidWorks.
"The industry professionals who attended the show demonstrated a real thirst for knowledge about the possibilities of 3D modelling for building structures now and into the future".
"SolidWorks has become a vital tool for structural engineers such as Price and Myers, and we were proud to be involved in this exhibition - one that presented such a clear and exciting vision for the future of 3D technology and architecture.".
