Manufacturing Process of a Staircase Component for the MACA Museum by Pablo Atchugarry"

Design Phase:

The design of the staircase component begins with conceptual sketches and 3D modeling.

The dimensions, materials, and aesthetic considerations are determined during this phase.

-Material Selection:

Based on the design requirements, the material chosen was GFRC.

Factors such as strength, durability, and appearance are taken into account.

-Cutting and Shaping:

The material for the molds, wood, are cut and shaped according to the design specifications.

-Precision tools and machinery are used to ensure accurate cuts and smooth edges.

-Joining and Assembly:

Various components of the staircase are joined together using welding, fasteners, and adhesives.

Attention is given to structural integrity and stability during the assembly process.

-Surface Finishing:

The staircase component undergoes surface treatments, such as polishing, and painting.

This step enhances the appearance, protects against corrosion, and adds a final touch.

-Quality Control:

Rigorous inspections are carried out to ensure that the staircase component meets the required standards.

Measurements, visual checks, and functionality tests are conducted to identify and address any defects.

-Installation:

The finished staircase component is carefully transported to the MACA Museum.

Installation experts position and secure the component in its designated location within the museum.

-Final Inspection and Sign-off:

A final inspection is conducted to verify the proper installation and overall quality of the staircase component.

Once approved, the manufacturing process is considered complete, and the component is ready for public use.
