Timber family houses: Potential for digitization and automation
Original language description
Wooden constructions have a rich historical background globally. Due to their attributes, modern timber buildings present opportunities for energy efficiency and environmental conservation, thus aiding in mitigating the ecological footprint of the construction sector. This paper aims to compare the diverse methodologies employed in timber construction between the US and Europe and subsequently evaluate the potential for digital transformation and automation within the operations of RD Rýmařov, Czechia's largest producer of single-family timber residences. The unique aspect of this company is the whole process (design, prefabrication, assembly) is fully controlled by the company itself. This study synthesizes insights from the ongoing research project Automation4Timber, currently in its concluding phase. The methods section delineates the process enhancement initiatives carried out by RD Rýmařov, encompassing preparatory, production, and assembly phases, each comprising various components. All instituted alterations facilitating digitalization and automation are elucidated in the Results section. The subsequent discussion and conclusion sections encapsulate the experiential insights gained from the implementation process, highlighting key aspects and potential challenges. This paper adds value by presenting a tangible case study of a manufacturing enterprise.
