1. A structural component assembly system comprising:
an assembly station comprising an assembly surface;
an assembly tool configured to access the assembly surface;
one or more memories having computer-readable instructions stored thereon; and
one or more processors that execute the computer-readable instructions to:
generate or modify an assembly sequence to assemble a structural component, the assembly sequence comprising one or more placement operations for each of a plurality of structural members of the structural component, each of the one or more placement operations comprising an approach vector comprising a direction and an offset;
generate project data comprising the assembly sequence; and
communicate the project data to the assembly station to utilize the assembly tool to place the plurality of the structural members on the assembly surface of the assembly station according to the direction and the offset of the approach vector for that structural member.
