Automating the design and assembly process of timber block construction system Available to Purchase

This paper will focus on the development and application of an Automated System on the design and construction of a timber block construction. The aim of this research is to question autonomous process in architecture and construction, mainly focus on the robotic assembly process to build a house. The computational task within the design project is to develop Machine Learning algorithms for on-site construction robots which are geometrically identical with the modular building components, operating on a three-dimensional grid and aggregate a discrete reconfigurable structure. The beta BIM application created within this design research with the main task as to train the control system of the robots will also formulate constraints and guidelines for the generative design process and on-site construction execution. Hence, the architects who have the knowledge of design house and home, should be the creator of the algorithms to digitalize the making process of inhabitable spaces. The main source of reference is emerged from philosophical approach of perception, behavioral and cybernetic in architectural design, to technological research in AI development and robotic control system for virtual simulation and on-site self-adjustment to function with real con- struction limitation.
