FULLY AUTOMATED FABRICATION PARTIALLY AUTOMATED FABRICATION FULLY AUTOMATED ASSEMBLY

AUTOMATED POSITIONING LIMITED CLEARANCE

CASE STUDY HOUSE 1950

1. SITE AND COLUMNS The was site dug and levelled. Formwork and reinforcement bars for the foundations were assembled on site and the concrete was poured. Prefabricated columns were brought to site and fixed to ‘u-bolts’ set in the foundation. Automation and digital fabrication methods could easily be applied to the prefabricated columns however, it would me more difficult to automate the process of making the foundations. The site is an organic environment and machines would need to make constant adjustments to be able to operate. This could be done with detailed scans feeding data through feedback loops to respond to site conditions.

2. STEEL BEAMS The beams were delivered to site and craned into position. They were aligned with the beam connection plates to the tops of the columns and bolted in place using the pre-drilled holes. Beams were cut to size, with holes drilled off site. This process could easily be motivated within the factory. The automation of the positioning and assembly of the beams to the columns could be more difficult. It would probably be necessary to redesign the nature of the fixings to make them more compatible with the motions of a robot. Scanning or laser positioning would also have to be implemented to accurately align pre-drilled holed in the beams and columns.

3. FASCIA PANEL, JOISTS, ROOF DECKING Fascia panels were pre-cut off site and welded onto the plates at the tops of the columns on site. Steel decking was craned onto the beams and spot-welded into position. Joists were delivered to site pre-cut and installed using spacing blocks and fixings through pre-drilled holes between beams. Operations such as positioning and welding fascia panels and decking are synonymous with the assembly and welding of a car chassis and could borrow from processes used in the automotive industry. Timber as a material is not as homogeneous as steel and thus automation of positioning and fixing would need to incorporate a system capable of making small corrections to allow for differences.

4. INSULATION AND CEILING The insulation and ceiling are brought to site in standard sizes from the manufacturer and were cut to size on site. This was labour intensive and time could have been saved through prefabrication but this would take into account for variations from the design on site. On-site digital manufacture could address the issue so that pieces could be easily and accurately cut allowing for the ‘as built’ situation by using 3D scanned information.

CAR MANUFACTURE

1. BODY IN WHITE AND BODY PANELS Body in white component fabrication and assembly is fully automated along with the fabrication of individual body panels. Sheet metal is sent through a series of automated presses which shape each element with robots transferring pieces between presses. Mercedes have developed a fully automated panel assembly method, that uses laser-guiding technology to ensure that panels are correctly aligned to within the required tolerances. The painting process is also fully automated in carefully controlled conditions achieving high quality finishes and sealing.

5. WALLS AND WINDOWS Exterior wall elements were constructed on site using simple stud wall construction. Windows would have been prefabricated by a specialist contractor and brought to site. Windows have long lead-in times and so any changes to the design or differences in the ‘as-built’ condition cannot be easily accommodated. Due to glass being a specialist product, it could be brought prefabricated to site with a frame digitally manufactured on site which would use 3D scanned data of the built structure. This could improve tolerances and hence thermal performance of the building. Exterior walls could also take advantage of on-site digital manufacture.

2. THE DRIVE TRAIN The painted chassis is mated to drive trains which may be manufactured on a separate site. These components are heavy and the positioning and fixing of the chassis onto the drive train requires a high degree of precision and are fully automated.

AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURE

6. INTERIOR PARTITIONS, FLOOR-TO-CEILING CABINETS AND INSTALLATION OF SERVICES Interior partitions and floor-to-ceiling cabintets were prefabricated off site and installed towards the end of the construction process. When these components were delivered to site, Soriano realised that they were the wrong height and so needed to by cut down to size by hand. This not only added delay to the project but would have also increased build costs and removed any advantage presented by prefabrication. Similar to the previous two steps, digitally manufacturing these components on-site could have alleviated these problems. The installation of services such as the on-site incinerator and waste disposal would have required penetration of the completed building, which would compromise the performance of the building skin as well as creating the need for remedial work to ‘make good’ the finishes. Better coordination between services and the building architecture from an early stage could solve this with penetrations being designed into the building skin from the start. Lessons could be learn from the aircraft and automotive industries with regard to how they mate drive trains to the vehicle architecture. 4. GLASS AND DOORS Glass is installed into doors and mated to the winding mechanism manually due to the intricate nature of the task. The front and rear windscreens are also installed manually. Doors, which were previously fitted to the car during the painting process are reattached and wired manually.

1.MANUFACTURING THE FUSELAGE The fabrication of components making up the fuselage is automated but the process of assembling them is done manually. Once the fuselage assembly is complete a strengthening composite layer is applied by mounting sections into a giant rotating lathe, which applies composite tape in layers. The entire process is automated. Fuselage components are sent to the assembly hangar, where they are mounted onto computer-guided trolleys. These carefully align the fuselage sections and the final fixing is conducted manually.

5. LIGHT CLUSTERS AND WHEELS Lights and wheels are installed manually. The lights have difficult-to-reach hidden fixings and need to be wired from behind. Wheels need to be aligned with the bolts on the hub and then bolted in place. This job can be easily conducted using unskilled labour. , LIGHTS AND GRILL

INTERIOR COMPONENTS

2. WINGS AND TAIL The wings and tail section are positioned with the help of computer guided trolleys and overhead cranes and are manually attached to the fuselage assembly. In the mean time, the interior fit out begins, with the installation of insulation, interior panels, carpets, seats, storage lockers bathrooms and the cockpit. All these operations are done manually as the levels of precision required are not the same as those required for the exterior also the manoeuvrability within the cabin is limited for the use of robots.

6. FINAL TESTING Completed cars are driven to a rolling road and the ECU is connected to a computer. Measurements of the vehicles’ outputs are assessed by a computer which compares them to the required values. Visual inspections are conducted throughout the production process.

3. TAIL FIN, LANDING GEAR AND ENGINES Similar to the earlier components, computer guided trolleys and forklift trucks position these elements however all fixing is carried out manually. The landing gear and engine attachment is a complicated task requiring both fixing and wiring. Operation needs to be tested after installation with computers being used to assist in alignment and correct connection.

4. PAINTING AND TESTING The aircraft is transferred to a separate painting hangar to be painted. The painting process is automated, ensuring an even paint coverage over the large area. A test flight in undertaken to ensure that the aircraft meets the required standards prior to delivery to the customer.

1. Rolls of steel delivered to manufacturing plant

2. CNC milling machines use 3D information in the form of tool paths fed via a computer to the cutter to manufacture tools that the steel will be pressed against.

3. A series of completely automated metal presses shape body and chassis panels. Robots move components from one press to the next.

4. Pressed components are placed on a conveyor belt and robots place them into racks until they are required for assembly.

5. The assembly of the body in white is fully automated including welding and gluing of components.

6. Certain manufacturers still require body components need to be guided into position manually.

7. Mercedes have developed a fully automated method of fitting and adjusting openings to the required tolerances. Lasers take measurements, fed to a computer which operates a feedback loop allowing small adjustments to be made by the robots.

8. Painting is carried out in a fully controlled environment and the process is fully automated. Nozzles follow the optimum path to ensure flawless paint coverage. By digitally vmore advanced paint finishes such as flip paints. Doors are removed after the painting process and reattached later in the manufacturing process.

9. The dashboard is a large and heavy interior element that is positioned using a robot with very carefully controlled movements as the openings are small. The robot also fixes the dashboard in place however final electrical connections and installations of sub elements such as satellite navigation are carried out manually.

10. The majority of the interior fit outs are carried out manually. This is probably due to small, fiddly components and the limited space for maneuverability within the cabin making it difficult for robots to operate.

11. Exterior elements such as light clusters are also installed by hand due to the wiring that needs to be fed through the cabin and connected.

12 The mating of the chassis and drive train on the production line is fully automated.

13. Windscreens are bonded in place manually. This process could easily be automated by using devices such as laser positioning or 3D scanning to ensure the glass is accurately aligned within the bodywork.

14. The front and rear bumpers are manually installed and screwed into position. The careful alignment and the requirement for the fixings to be hidden out of sight within the engine bay make it tricky for this process to be automated.

15. Wheels are attached manually although with advances in positioning technology, this could easily be automated in the future.

16. The installation of the seats takes place late on the production line and so there is limited space available for maneuverability once other interior components are in place. The positioning and fixing of the seats is usually carried out manually.

17. Glass is installed into the doors and fixed to the winding mechanism. The door is then hung on to the hinges. All this is conducted manually due to the fiddly nature of the operations.

18. Final testing of completed vehicles is not fully automated. Labourers must drive the car on to the rolling road and computers analyse readouts from the ECU.

| CAR INDUSTRY | The Car Industry has embraced automation and digital fabrication in a bid to improve quality as well as reduce production costs. The initial stages of fabrication and components assembly such as manufacturing the body in white and door panels are conducted by automated means. Technology such as laser positioning allows panel gaps to be greatly reduced and using robots to paint and seal the bodywork ensures even coverage hence reducing the risk of corrosion. The later stages on the production line however seem to still be labour intensive and this is due to several reasons. Firstly laser positioning and scanning technology may still not provide a high enough accuracy to assemble certain components to the small tolerances demanded by the manufacturer. Secondly there may not be enough clearance in some cases to allow robots the access to work such as within the cabin. Thirdly, the costs of automation may far outweigh the cost of employing cheap, unskilled labour.

1. Composite ‘tape’ is applied in layers to fabricate incredibly light yet strong components. This process is completely automated to ensure that components are manufactured correctly. An optimum path is calculated to ensure that the correct amount of composite is applied to the component and in the shortest time.

2. The fuselage assembly uses prefabricated components that are assembled manually. This very intricate task requires fixing from the cabin side and it would probably be difficult to use a robot to assemble each individual piece within the confined

7. Overhead cranes lift the fuselage sections onto computer guided trolleys.

8. Computer guided trolleys carefully move and align the fuselage sections together.

13. The lack of space within the cabin means that interior fit outs are conducted manually as robots would probably not have sufficient space to maneuver. In addition difficult to reach hidden fixings are probably not compatible the movements most robots are capable of.

14. Levels of precision in the interior do not need to be as high as the exterior and so unskilled manual labour can carry out these tasks cheaply.

space.

3. The fuselage assembly is fitted into a giant lathe and rotates slowly as composite tape is applied. As the fuselage is rotated the tape applicator moves from one side to the other to ensure even coverage of the composite. The process is wholly

4. The composite is heat cured to bond and strengthen the component. This process is computer controlled to ensure the curing is consistent.

5. Completed fuselage sections are delivered (often by air in specially modified aircraft) to the assembly site. Components are manually removed from the plane and manually moved into the assembly hangar.

10. The final alignment of the fixings of components such as the tail fin to the fuselage is controlled manually either by machine or human force.

11. Components once in position are fixed in place manually. This is potentially due to the process being relatively simple and the lack of clearance within which the work needs to be carried out.

12. The engines are brought to the wings on a computer guided trolley. Final attachment and connection to the controls are conducted manually.

16. Once complete, the aircraft is moved to another hangar with the help of a man controlled tug.

17. The painting of the outside of the aircraft is in some cases automated. There is a large area to cover and automation ensures a consistant finish.

18. The test flight ensures that the plane is working properly prior to being delivered to the customer.

automated.

9. Automated fork-lift-trucks bring other components and align them with the body of the plane.

15. The computer guided trolleys slowly move the aircraft along the hangar as they become more complete.

6. The hangar is a very clean space and aircraft components rest on either computer controlled trolleys or cranes, which allow components to be correctly aligned.

| AIRCRAFT INDUSTRY | Aircrafts are far larger than cars and are closer in size to buildings. It is therefore very exciting to look at automation and digital fabrication used in aircraft manufacture as it could be used to inform progression within the construction industry. In a similar vein to motor vehicle manufacture, the fabrication of individual components is heavily automated and relies greatly on digital fabrication techniques. Positioning of individual components also appears to be carried out in most cases by computer guided trolleys or cranes. What this case study reveals is that the sheer size of aircraft means that it is difficult to automate the assembly of individual components. Manual labour is still required in mating components and installing fixings. The interior fit outs of aircraft seem to be the domain of manual labour and the process has not been automated. Narrow openings into the cabin together with limited interior space and difficult to reach fixings make the processes impractical for automation. The automation of the interior fit out does not become possible unless sequencing is changed or the cabin architecture is rethought.

Potential Use

Non-structural, infill. Supported floor, supported wall, supported roof.

Supported floor, supported roof.

Enclosed space open at two ends walls, roof and floor.

Wall/roof/floor structure. Could be used for cantilevers. A closed form could be created.

Arch roof structure. Could be used for cantilevers if arch is placed on its side. An enclosed form could be created.

Curtain/wall mounted to additional structure.

Enclosed space open at two ends walls, roof and floor.

Roof structure.

Roof structure.

Could be used as a wall with additional structural support.

Notes

Structurally, the performance of this system is poor however it can provide good coverage from a material that could be folded into a very small area.

If supported from four edges of the pleat, the structure remains stable. This makes it unsuitable for use in cantilevers. Deeper folds improves strength characteristics in Z direction. Can be formed into an arch by modifying the crease pattern.

Expanding form reduces structural performance as depth of structure reduced. Can create curved extrusions.

The square fold at the edge creates a strength that maintains the orthogonal edge. Could be used to create curved extrusions.

The approximated arch form creates a structurally efficient form. Can be locked into position by pinning one pair of parallel segments.

The behaviour of this system is complex. It does not provide sufficient stability on its own to perform as an independent structure. Could be used to create a textured shell structure.

The behaviour of this system is complex. It collapses in a scalar manner in the X, Y and Z direction. The expanded form can be locked into its expanded state by pushing out concave nodes.

By connecting the top two points with a cable and tethering the parabola to the ground, the structure can be stabilised. The structure is very complex. The form could be used to form a shell structure.

The behaviour of this system is complex. It collapses in a scalar manner in the X, Y and Z direction. The expanded form can be locked into its expanded state by pushing out depressed nodes.

The behaviour of this system is complex. It does not provide sufficient stability on its own to perform as an independent structure. The structure can generate a rotated enclosed form around both the x and y axis, open at either end.


SECURITY SHELTER PUBLIC

The dwelling for nomadic artists involves understanding the existing condition of temporary and communal living. Temporary living arrangement stretch from one end of the spectrum as a campsite to that of squatting in luxury homes in London. Communal living is commonplace with young artists who require large spaces to produce work combined with low and unsteady incomes that are incompatible with the financially driven UK property markets.

PRIVATE

INTERNET

Materiality will be informed by the level of permanence in addition to the climatic conditions. The simplest temporary dwellings would be tents, which are generally made from rigid poles which have fabric draped over them. They are designed to be occupied for short periods of time usually up to a maximum of one week. This dwelling will be more comfortable than a tent as it will be designed to be occupied for up to 6 months at a time on one site. Short term occupation of sites means that the structures will be exempt from many requirements outlined by UK building regulations. Quick and easy deployment will exploit the characteristics of the Yoshimura origami pattern.

Manufacturing the building elements digitally off site in a factory will ensure better construction quality and lower costs resulting from the potential for automation and mass production. The dwellings will be delivered to site 90% complete with only foundations and connections between building components needing to be made on site.

OUTDOOR SPACE LIGHT

SLEEPING

One factory centrally located within the UK manufactures the building components from where they are loaded onto a lorry and driven to site ready to be assembled.

STORAGE GARAGE

The temporary presence of the nomadic artists act to engage the community with art. Local people can experience and learn. The artists have the opportunity to create pieces inspired by the temporary surroundings and exhibit them locally.

BATHING

STUDY

The client is a cooperative of young artists who are looking to live communally across a series of sites.

UTILITY WC

LIVING

EATING

An initial investment into the building components is made by artists as a cooperative. As this building can be deployed across a variety of sites, the investment can be spread across a number of years. Favourable rental agreements for the site and services will be possible as otherwise unusable sites or spaces in a state of change are occupied temporarily. Certain sites may be occupied for free due to the presence of the artists acting as a deterrent to vandals to disused or dormant sites or because they provide a catalist for regeneration.

PERSONALITY

The buiding acts as paracitic to its surroundings. It borrows power, uses services and benefits from local amenities as far as possible. Components can be easily replaced and like a vehicle, a full service is conducted at the factory once a year to replace faulty components.

Facilities: Bedroom, kitchen, lounge, dining room, bathroom and more depending on type of property occupied.

Facilities: Beds, bathroom, kitchen and dining, sitting area. Lounge, bar may be provided centrally.

Services: Some services may be provided centrally such as bathrooms, kitchens, laundry but usually any comforts need to be provided by the individual. Gas cooking stove/barbecue, battery-powered light.

Services: Light, heat, electricity, laundry, water, sewerage. Some of these could be disconnected.

Services: Light, heat, electricity, laundry, water, sewerage, internet, TV, gas.

Comfort: *** Usual occupation: up to one week Facilities: Private bedroom, en suite/shared bathroom, private/shared lounge, bar, storage. Services: Food provided through staffed kitchen, outsourced laundry, room thermal control, light, electricity, water, sewerage, waste collection, TV, internet, linen. Notes: There is usually little interaction between guests of hotels with facilities and services are provided on a room by room basis. This is an expensive option and cannot realistically be considered for longer-term occupation.

Usual occupation: up to two weeks Facilities: Shared bedroom, shared bathroom, shared kitchen and dining, shared lounge and bar, storage lockers. Services: option to cook own meals, self service laundry, light, electricity, water, centralised heating/cooling, sewerage, waste collection, communal TV, internet, linen. Notes: Cheaper than hotels, hostels require guests to share more facilities including bedrooms thus creating more social interaction. Guests are also require to undertake more tasks themselves such as cooking, washing dishes and removing bedding at the end of their stay. For the longer-term, this option can be more costly than rental. Many temporary, low paid workers can spend longer periods of time in hostels as rooms are charged on a daily basis and do not require deposit.

Typical area: 50 sq m

Services: Kitchenette, communal laundry, light, electricity, off grid water (tank), off grid sewerage (tank), off grid gas (cylinder), paraffin heating, internet may be provided centrally, TV. Notes: Caravan parks can be legal or illegal. The ability for a caravan to function off grid means that it can relocate almost anywhere that has road access but regulations may not allow vehicles to park in certain areas. Occupants are required to maintain services such at emptying and filling tanks. Certain services cannot be provided within the dwelling. Space within the dwelling is limited.

Facilities: Sleeping bag, limited storage.

Notes: Campsites can be legal or illegal. Tents are the most versatile dwellings in terms of being able to locate virtually anywhere as sites can be reached by foot. Occupants need to separately provide or do without certain services. In most cases tents provide basic shelter and nothing more and so are not considered suitable for long term inhabitation. Illegal sites such as the Occupy London campsite outside St Paul’s Cathedral survived for a number of months before being dismantled. Over this time a number of temporary support services had time to develop including bathroom facilities, catering tents and shops.

Notes: Squatting is now illegal in the UK. There is therefore an uncertainty associated with this type of living. It may be possible to live in relative comfort for little money due to many facilities and services being free to the occupants. Due to the occupants having no liability over the dwelling, there is often little incentive to keep the property in a good state of repair. Artists have traditionally lived in squats, but they do not provide a suitable long-term solution there is a continuous threat of eviction.

Notes: In London, this is an expensive proposition. Rents are high and a sizable deposit together with a regular income are required. Sharing is a possible option and a variety of properties can be rented addressing the issues of affordability and suitability.

Facilities: Vary depending on type of property but usually include, bed, bathroom and kitchen. Services: Light, heat, electricity, water, sewerage. Notes: The occupation of vacant property provides a deterrent against vandalism and squatting, whilst providing an income for the landlord. Rents are lower due to the type of property (which could be commercial or residential) and shorter notice periods. These types of properties offer the advantages of rented houses but with lower costs and shorter rental agreements. There are disadvantages surrounding how the property may be occupied with clauses preventing artists from working there.

Usual occupation: 10 years across a variety of sites with 6-month rotations. Facilities: Bed, communal bathroom, communal kitchen, communal living space, communal studio. Services: Light, heat, electricity, water, sewerage - connected to a ‘host’ property. Notes: The aim is to provide the basic comforts of a traditional static home with the flexibility and mobility of a caravan. Services that are not provided within the building can be provided by the locality the scheme resides in e.g. laundry. Building is commissioned by a cooperative who purchase the building outright and a ground rent is paid at a monthly rate agreed with the landlord depending on the site occupied.
