Abstract 3D assemblies involve multiple component parts. Rather than relying on additional fasteners such as nails and screws to connect the parts, component parts can be interlocked into a steady assembly based on their own geometric arrangements. This talk revisits the notion of 3D interlocking, and explores the governing mechanics of general 3D interlocking assemblies. From this, constructive approaches are developed for computational design of various new interlocking assemblies such as puzzles, 3D printed objects and furniture. These interlocking assemblies are ready for fabrication and their steadiness have been validated in our experiments.
