This study presents an innovative approach to sustainable timber construction by integrating traditional woodworking techniques with advanced robotic technology. The research focuses on three key objectives: preserving traditional craftsmanship, enhancing material conservation, and improving production efficiency. A meta-model-based framework is developed to capture the woodcrafts of mortise and tenon joints, which are prevalent in traditional Chinese wooden architecture. The study employs parametric design and robotic arm technology to digitize and automate the production process, resulting in significant improvements in material utilization and processing efficiency. Specifically, this study utilizes genetic algorithm strategies to resolve the problem of complex mortise and tenon craftsmanship optimization for robotic arms. Compared to conventional CNC machining, the proposed method demonstrates superior performance in path optimization, reduced material waste, and faster production times. The research contributes to the field of sustainable architecture by offering a novel solution that balances the preservation of cultural heritage with modern construction demands. This approach not only ensures the continuity of traditional woodworking skills but also addresses contemporary challenges in sustainable building practices, paving the way for more environmentally friendly and efficient timber construction methods.
