Marc Pancharowitsch

Marc Pancharowitsch is a researcher at the Institute of Building Construction, Timber Construction and Circular Construction, part of the Department of Landscape, Water and Infrastructure at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna (BOKU). His work focuses on advancing timber construction through automation, robotics, and sustainable methods.

His research interests include:

• Structural Engineering
• Timber Construction
• Sustainable Construction
• Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM)
• Robotics in Construction
• Automation Technology

His recent publications (2021–2025) emphasize robotic timber milling, accuracy assessment of industrial robots, machining parameters in glued-laminated timber, and the structural performance of robot-manufactured joints. These works reflect a strong trend toward integrating robotics into construction for enhanced precision, efficiency, and sustainability.

He has contributed to both journal articles and conference proceedings, often collaborating with researchers like Benjamin Kromoser and Michael Braun. His work bridges academic research and industrial application, particularly in prefabricated facade systems and digital fabrication.

Scientific contributions include:

• Active participation in the national industry-funded project Prefab.Facade, improving recyclable, serially prefabricated facade elements.
• Supervision of master’s theses on robotic machining accuracy and process data evaluation in timber manufacturing.
• Teaching and knowledge transfer in structural and timber engineering.

Marc Pancharowitsch is part of the DD&DC Lab (Digital Design and Construction Lab) at BOKU, contributing to applied research that connects computational modeling, robotics, and construction practice. His work supports the transition toward circular and automated construction processes.
