Management of structures for packaging

A device, comprising:

• a processor configured to
• provide a model specifying a geometry of a structure, at least parts of the structure to be packaged in one or more containers, the model further specifying at least one attribute for the geometry of the structure;
• segment the geometry of the structure into a plurality of segments;
• determine one or more groups of segments of the plurality of segments, each group of segments to be arranged in one of the one or more containers;
• for each container, calculate at least one property of the container based on the at least one attribute associated with the group of segments arranged in the container;
• and
• verify the at least one property of at least one container based on at least one threshold.

One or more containers including a deconstructed structure, wherein the one or more containers are packaged according to method comprising:

• providing a model specifying a geometry of a structure, at least parts of the structure to be packaged in the one or more containers, the model further specifying at least one attribute for the geometry of the structure;
• segmenting the geometry of the structure into a plurality of segments;
• determining one or more groups of segments of the plurality of segments, each group of segments to be arranged in one of the one or more containers;
• for each container, calculating at least one property of the container based on the at least one attribute associated with the group of segments arranged in the container;
• verifying the at least one property of at least one container based on at least one threshold;
• determining a deconstruction plan for the structure based on the one or more groups of segments in the model, the deconstruction plan specifying a deconstruction of the structure into a plurality of components corresponding to the plurality of segments in the one or more groups;
• and
• packaging the plurality of components into the one or more containers based on the one or more groups and the associated containers.
