Environmental leadership: Vitruvian has brought together the design, engineering and manufacturing standards to forge a new path of acceptance in every City and County that before, was challenging to attain. The long-term benefits of creating this overall acceptance are immeasurable.
Creativity and other considerations: Vitruvian's automation encourages design flexibility. Once a building shell is designed, Vitruvian's patented software will actually build the wall itself in 3D, labeling each component and generating code to cut the materials. If the shell design happens to change, the 3D wall can be rebuilt in seconds and all of the data associated with it will update. This modern technology, coupled with flexible materials can adapt, but are not limited to traditional architecture. There are no design limitations.
Reducing pollution: America’s buildings represent more than 36% of our energy consumption and more than 30% of our green house gas emissions. If the estimated replacement and new construction between now and 2030 all used the Vitruvian process, it would be the equivalent of taking 91 million cars off the road.
Improving resource conservation, sustainability and improving energy efficiency: Through our customized software, we are able to accurately cut-list, not only the wall and roof panels that create our highly efficient envelope, but all of the other building materials that make up a structure. The result is an overall waste rate of less than 1% or 1/10 that of traditional construction methods.
Improving air and water quality: All Vitruvian materials produce zero off-gassing for the life of the building. Virtual jobsites enable Vitruvian to confront potential problems digitally (on-screen) rather than physically (in-field), insuring an efficient assembly. Like a tiger, saving reserve energy (resources) for the critical moment when it is needed most, in short bursts. Also, because of the lightweight building product, there is a huge reduction in the associated transportation costs, therefore minimizing green house gasses.
Innovation is the hallmark of the Vitruvian system. The idea of taking any design from any computer, directly to the manufacturing environment, with no required human intervention is the Vitruvian ideal. The simplicity and access to energy conservation empowers the end user to utilize these now accessible processes.
Vitruvian’s process management technology is available to the open market immediately. By initially adopting this technology in the first stages of construction, efficiencies can be realized throughout all aspects for every phase.
Vitruvian has not only created a new use for a material, but a manageable process and a new way of thinking about how a new paradigm may help humanity and the environment.
