opted to CNC cut fiber cement boards for the SYNC Pavilion modules, valuing the material\u2019s durability and density.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">Our discussions with CNC experts addressed everything from preparing precise drawings to adjusting gap tolerances for consistent cuts. Despite our efforts, the CNC process proved unworkable due to the fiber cement\u2019s density, causing drill bits to spark, overheat, and even catch fire. Attempts to resolve this by switching bits and spraying water only increased friction as water combined with cement dust.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Material Selection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">After multiple trials, we concluded that the pavilion couldn\u2019t be completed within the initial one-month production schedule, which involved over two weeks of intensive communication with all parties. A few months later, we explored plywood as an alternative material for the SYNC Pavilion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">We began by sourcing plywood from local carpenters, but the results didn\u2019t meet our expectations. To understand more about plywood quality and how it would impact our design, we reached out directly to suppliers for further insights. Once we had successfully sourced quality plywood, we sent samples for CNC cutting to evaluate the cuts and determine if any finishing would be required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:1.3rem\">Our collaboration with UCSI University, an outreach to education sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:42px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"121\" src=\"https:\/\/fzerolab.net\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/DSC_0027-Enhanced-NR.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-121\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"120\" src=\"https:\/\/fzerolab.net\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/DSC_0039-Enhanced-NR.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-120\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"119\" src=\"https:\/\/fzerolab.net\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/375A0010.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-119\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"118\" src=\"https:\/\/fzerolab.net\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/375A0078-Enhanced-NR.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-118\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"117\" src=\"https:\/\/fzerolab.net\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/375A0060.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students from UCSI University&#8217;s School of Architecture and Built Environment(SABE) assisted in setup and moves of SYNC Pavilion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:180px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SYNC Pavilion &#8211;

Its playful shapes, designed for flexibility, enable countless variations. The design is mobile, easy to dismantle, and can inspire many communities, offering maximum creativity with minimal waste, empowering people to create a space that truly reflects their community. Our Process Design, Research, Implementation. SYNC&#8217;s first step started from design. Then comes research. CNC Process fzerolab opted to CNC cut fiber cement boards for the SYNC Pavilion modules, valuing the material\u2019s durability and density. Our discussions with CNC experts addressed everything from preparing precise drawings to adjusting gap tolerances for consistent cuts. Despite our efforts, the CNC process proved unworkable due to the fiber cement\u2019s density, causing drill bits to spark, overheat, and even catch fire. Attempts to resolve this by switching bits and spraying water only increased friction as water combined with cement dust. Material Selection After multiple trials, we concluded that the pavilion couldn\u2019t be completed within the initial one-month production schedule, which involved over two weeks of intensive communication with all parties. A few months later, we explored plywood as an alternative material for the SYNC Pavilion. We began by sourcing plywood from local carpenters, but the results didn\u2019t meet our expectations. To understand more about plywood quality and how it would impact our design, we reached out directly to suppliers for further insights. Once we had successfully sourced quality plywood, we sent samples for CNC cutting to evaluate the cuts and determine if any finishing would be required. Our collaboration with UCSI University, an outreach to education sector. Students from UCSI University&#8217;s School of Architecture and Built Environment(SABE) assisted in setup and moves of SYNC Pavilion.
