Automation and Digitization in Timber Construction

In this work, the authors provide an overview of the manufacturing principles possible in timber construction, such as batch, line, and cell production, and assess these approaches in relation to the requirements of different timber construction companies.
In a further step, technological possibilities for all relevant processes in timber construction production are discussed. Due to the authors' strong ties to science and research, the technological approaches are analyzed for their potential strengths and weaknesses, offering the reader a neutral perspective, independent of manufacturer arguments.
The authors not only address key questions that arise regarding new construction or expansion of production, but also present solutions that help optimize and digitize the entire process, from order generation to the completion of a construction project.
A central guiding principle of the authors is the realization that optimizing a single area in production cannot fully harness the potential of the entire timber construction process.
