| summary |
This paper demonstrates an integrated approach for the development of a complex timber structure through a hybrid model of robotic and conventional construction. Specifically, a tree-like branching structure is parametrically developed and optimized in terms of material waste reduction during robotic cutting of variable structural components in size and angle. Also, the position and angle of joints are determined through robotic marking of wooden components in a continuous robotic workflow. This is followed by their conventional assembly into larger structural elements and then into an overall structure. The physical results are evaluated in terms of cutting and assembly accuracy of wooden parts based on a 3D scanning approach. The results show manufacturing deviations, both in cutting and assembly stages, which are executed by the robot and the carpenters respectively. These results provide useful inputs that enables a more thorough and productive consideration of the application of robotic technology and human involvement in the construction industry. |
