Curtin University – Team 6

Submission Extract: This project brings a clear focus to the benefits of prefabrication in architectural design to develop healthy, comfortable carbon positive housing to Australia. We have replaced the conventions of concrete and steel construction as these methods are responsible for the largest amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Utilising CLT as the primary superstructure for the apartment modules has multiple environmental benefits through its storage of CO2 in its cellular structure, as well as its flexibility in the fabrication process, especially through the implementation of robotics and computer numerical control (CNC) computer-aided design (CAD) technologies.
