The design of Solair was well refined – time for construction. A section of the wooden frame was produced at scale to test structural integrity. With the confirmation of the structure, the CNC machine was used to precisely produce each component of the wooden frame and each reflective panel of the project. Through the early stages of construction, the project’s structure began to emerge.
Figure 1: Students discussed the specifics of the reflective panel connection to the wooden framework.
Figure 2: Students discussed the dimensions of each component of the structural framework.
Figure 3: Students kept a careful eye on the CNC machine to ensure accurate production of each component.
