2024 Offsite Conference Panel: Effectively Fabricating From a Model

This panel explored the importance of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) principles within the AEC space, particularly as it relates to optimizing prefabrication and modularization. Experts explored strategies for effectively fabricating directly from digital models to streamline offsite construction processes. Other areas of focus include the Design-Manufacture-Construct (DMC) model, emphasizing its role in bridging design intent and manufacturing precision, and the interplay between material selection and design, showcasing how these conversations shape fabrication outcomes.
