The robotic technology company has entered into its first multi-home contract to use the robot to supply its 鈥榃all as a Service鈥� package to a third-party residential property developer.
The contract pertains to a development site in St James, Western Australia, under which FBR will construct the slab, footings, structural walls, second-storey slab and roof trusses for eight two-storey townhouses.
Work on the AU$5m project will start as soon as practicable after all necessary approvals have been granted and will be completed at commercial rates, with the Wall as a Service contract valued at more than AU$0.5m.
FBR鈥檚 managing director & chief executive officer Mike Pivac said: 鈥淲e are pleased to be adding this large project to our pipeline of work, having spent the past 12 months introducing the Hadrian X into the real-world building environment to validate our game-changing technology with some prominent Western Australian builders. Now that we have demonstrated all the benefits the Hadrian X庐 provides, we are now going to ramp up the utilisation of our technology, while continuing the development work at our R&D facility.鈥�
FBR will also complete the walls of the second of five house structures in Wellard shortly.
