The UK has the renewable natural resource, internationally recognised expertise, and technical capabilities necessary to be at the forefront of a new approach to delivering a sustainable and resilient built environment in response to the COVID-19 recovery ("**build back better**"), Brexit, the declared climate emergency, and UN Sustainable Development Goals. This project represents the culmination of several years of collaborative research between project partners into the feasibility of homegrown mass timber components. Core outputs are to design, engineer, manufacture, construct and evaluate the homegrown mass timber elements of a two-storey modular home, whilst simultaneously evidencing a business case for the UK's first mass timber manufacturing facility to increase both the use and value of the UK's natural timber resource.The project will harness well-established international developments in construction technology and align them with societal and financial shifts in UK housing design, together with the move towards offsite manufacture of buildings, as demonstrated by the UK Government's 2017 "**presumption in favour of offsite**", specifically focussing on housing. Despite the global market shift in the appetite for mass timber products, no commercial manufacturing facilities exist in the UK. With increasing demand for the product based on benefits such as its overall life-cycle costs, reduced wastage, increased construction and delivery speed, health and wellbeing benefits and building fabric performance, there is an immediate requirement to investigate optimal mass timber solutions from a UK context.The project objective is to validate homegrown mass timber construction products from a mechanical, engineering, productivity, and cost perspective for the UK market. To interrogate the potential solution, the project will be fully digitised via the creation of a digital twin to capture all available information, as well as test project suitability with the supply chain, giving consideration to **Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA)** and **Disassembly (DfMA+D)** requirements. This will ensure mass customisation and standardisation, enable full process automation, develop an integrated supply chain and take cognisance of the need to design and construct following the **Circular Economy** model.In the current COVID-19 climate, factory shift patterns can better manage social distancing, automation can reduce manual handling and personalisation can ensure continuous value add to our renewable natural resources. Furthermore, the data and evidence produced by the project will be transformed into functioning live case studies for digital and AR/VR learning opportunities and knowledge exchange, ensuring full dissemination of best practice techniques and methodologies in a COVID-safe environment.

英国拥有可再生自然资源、国际认可的专业知识和技术能力，能够站在提供可持续和有弹性的建筑环境的新方法的最前沿，以应对COVID-19复苏（“重建更好”）、英国退欧、宣布的气候紧急状态和联合国可持续发展目标。该项目代表了项目合作伙伴之间几年合作研究的成果，这些研究是对国产大规模木材组件的可行性的研究。核心产出是设计，工程，制造，建造和评估一个两层楼的模块化家庭的本土大规模木材元素，同时证明了英国第一个大规模木材制造设施的商业案例，以增加英国天然木材资源的使用和价值。该项目将充分利用-建立建筑技术的国际发展，并使其与英国住房设计的社会和金融转变保持一致，以及向建筑物的异地制造的转变，正如英国政府2017年的“支持异地 ** 的推定”所证明的那样，特别关注住房。尽管全球市场对大规模木材产品的需求发生了变化，但英国没有商业生产设施。随着对该产品的需求不断增加，其好处包括整体生命周期成本、减少浪费、提高施工和交付速度、健康和福利效益以及建筑织物性能，迫切需要研究英国背景下的最佳大规模木材解决方案。该项目的目标是从机械、工程、生产力、英国市场的成本前景。为了询问潜在的解决方案，该项目将通过创建数字孪生模型来完全数字化，以捕获所有可用信息，并测试项目与供应链的适用性，同时考虑 ** 制造和装配设计（DfMA）** 和 ** 装配（DfMA+D）** 要求。这将确保大规模定制和标准化，实现全流程自动化，开发集成供应链，并认识到需要按照 ** 循环经济 ** 模式进行设计和建设。在当前的COVID-19气候下，工厂轮班模式可以更好地管理社交距离，自动化可以减少人工处理，个性化可以确保我们的可再生自然资源持续增值。此外，该项目产生的数据和证据将转化为有效的现场案例研究，以提供数字和AR/VR学习机会和知识交流，确保在COVID安全环境中充分传播最佳实践技术和方法。
