A method for building slabs composed of discrete short timber slats is proposed. It involves simulating its principal stresses to locate and orient each building component. Those are assembled by a robotic arm in collaboration with a worker using an augmented reality head-mounted device. The prototypeserves as a proof of concept and proved structurally viable, and future work involves interlocking the slats using halved joints and implementing a strategy to reuse wood production waste components as stock material.
