 +====== USA Research Efforts ======
  
 +###
 +<fs medium>Research in the USA has been pretty much confined to architectural students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Norwich University.  At MIT Mr. Shuji Suzumori is pursuing a Master of Architecture with a thesis topic in textile formwork.  And, at The School of Architecture & Art, Norwich University assistant professor Eleanor D'Aponte and her students have conducted two workshops exploring "Innovations in Fabric Formed Concrete" These workshops were held at and co-sponsored by Yestermorrow Design/Build School located in Warren, VT.  They took place during the summers of 2009 and 2010.</fs>

 +<fs medium>Research into the engineering aspects of fabric-formed concrete has been done by Robert Schmitz while pursuing a Masters in Structural Engineering from the Milwaukee School of Engineering located in Milwaukee, WI [1].  His research interest in fabric formwork comes as a result of work he completed for his Master’s degree and his desire to see this unique method of forming concrete brought into mainstream construction practice.  See [[fabwiki:research:usa:usa_schmitz|USA_Schmitz]] for a paper entitled "//Fabric-Formed Concrete Panel Design//" written for and presented at the 17th Analysis and Computation Specialty Conference held in conjunction with the 2006 ASCE Structures Congress held in St. Louis, MO [2].</fs>
