A huge milestone achieved during the week gone is the completion of the 3D modelling for all the brand-new structural components going into the latest WikiHouse. Those who have been following us for a while will know that we created a concept prototype frame some time back based around a sub-consent studio.

The ones cut for that were mostly evolutionary in nature, but these new components are completely new approaches to solving the same issues, or in some cases offer quite different functionality. Getting all those new components into 3D models means the gateway to cutting and testing the physical pieces is now opened for us, and we move from a largely design phase into the testing phase that provides the analytical data required to ensure the structure is strong and safe.
