Mechanization and Automation by the Manufacturing of Removable Modular Buildings Frans van Gassel Pages 1019-1026 (1996 Proceedings of the 13th ISARC, Tokyo, Japan, ISSN 2413-5844) Abstract: During the last ten years Removable Modular Building Systems in the Netherlands have made remarkable progress by using mechanization and automation. These are not the only techniques, as logistic techniques, design according to a modular system and standardization of joints, are also used. An interesting question is what designers of permanent buildings and building processes can learn from these techniques.To get insight into the manufacturing of Removable Modular Buildings this system has been described. The problems related to the production of permanent buildings are mentioned too. The answer to the question: "What can we learn about mechanization and automation by the production of Removable Modular Buildings for the construction of permanent buildings?", is: Reducing the construction processes on the site to simple transport and assembly processes allows mechanization and robotization to become less complex. It is possibly to develop components with standard joints (design by construction). All information about the product and its production process can be stored in one data-base.
