Abstract

Described herein are methods and systems to establish a pre-build relationship in a model that specifies a first parameter for a first feature of a structure and a second parameter for a second feature of the structure. In particular, a computing system may receive data specifying a pre-build relationship that defines a build value of the first parameter in terms of a post-build observed value of the second parameter. During production of the structure, the computing system may determine the post-build observed value of the second parameter and, based on the determined post-build observed value, may determine the build value of the first parameter in accordance with the pre-build relationship. After determining the build value, the computing system may then transmit, to a robotic system, an instruction associated with production of the first feature by the robotic system, with that instruction specifying the determined build value of the first parameter.
