Manufacturing to Deliver Housing at Scale
EF 2024-25
Résumé
Integrated processes that link architectural design and digital fabrication are necessary for widespread adoption of prefabrication in the construction sector. Canada's housing crisis will require new modes of assembly that can be adopted by a broad spectrum of component manufacturers to meet the demands identified by the federal and provincial governments across Canada. This project builds upon a successful partnership between five members of the Canadian Coalition for Housing at Scale (CCHS); Epok Enterprises, L'OEUF Architects, ARaymond, Oliphia Associates and Carleton University to obtain critical data needed for the development of the first product catalogue of prefabricated components and fasteners for assembly in a robotic cell.
