About

Julien Glath is a researcher in structural timber engineering and digital fabrication, with a focus on advancing traditional joinery techniques through modern computational methods. His work centers on the non-sequential assembly of mortise and tenon joints, a key contribution that challenges conventional construction workflows by enabling more flexible, automated, and efficient timber connections. This approach reduces reliance on sequential manual assembly, opening new possibilities for robotic fabrication and prefabrication in sustainable architecture. Glath’s most-cited paper, "Non-sequential assembly of mortise and tenon joints" (2023), has garnered 2 citations, reflecting its emerging impact in the field of timber engineering and digital construction. His research bridges centuries-old craftsmanship with cutting-edge design-to-production processes, offering practical solutions for complex timber structures. Glath’s work is notable for its integration of geometric analysis, robotic assembly strategies, and material efficiency, positioning him as a rising contributor to the future of timber construction. His findings are particularly relevant for researchers and practitioners exploring automated joinery, sustainable building systems, and the digitization of traditional carpentry.
