In this blog, I will discussed my research, analyses, and findings on worldwide approaches to on-site systems.
Framework for Technical and Efficient Analysis
When it comes to efficiency and output, the evaluation of the framework operates under the assumption that technical and economic efficiencies stem from both a suitable mixture of inputs and the production of high-value products with a low incidence of defects.
On-going Analyses
We plan to examine different systems that have either been developed or implemented worldwide. Our aim is to comprehend the pros, cons, and benefits of each framework, so that we can concentrate our efforts on creating the most efficient and cost-effective system possible.
Our Approach
Develop a fully automated system to construct entire buildings core and shell floor by floor with minimal human intervention. We are calling this system ABRAT (Automated Building Robotic Assembly Technology).
This ABRAT automated building construction system and method for constructing multi-story buildings using robotics and advanced 3D printing technology along with many other technologies and processes. The system includes a set of robotic arms and a 3D printer that work together to construct the core and shell of the building, floor by floor, with minimal human intervention.
The system is capable of reading information models and adjusting to changes in design, as well as coordinating with other systems, such as structural, mechanical, plumbing and electrical, to ensure a seamless construction process. The method includes the steps of preparing the building site, survey conditions, automate the programming of the system, and executing the construction process. The result is a fast, efficient, and cost-effective building construction process that minimizes the need for human labor and maximizes safety.
Description: Our ABRAT system is programmed to execute the entire construction process in a predetermined sequence and phases, including site preparation, excavation, and construction of the building's foundation as well as the assembly and construction of the entire building elements.
Once the site work and foundation is complete, the system constructs the building's core and shell floor by floor, using the robotic arms and 3D printer to place and reinforce structural elements and assemble the prefabricated walls, floors, and ceilings. The system can also install prefabricated plumbing, electrical, and other building systems in coordination with the construction process.
This automated and programmed system includes sensors and feedback mechanisms to ensure the quality of the construction process and detect any errors or anomalies. The system is also designed to minimize waste and reduce environmental impact, by using recycled materials and optimizing material usage.
In another embodiment, the ABRAT system is modular and scalable, allowing it to be adapted for different types of buildings and construction projects. The system is also designed to be cost-effective and reduce construction time, making it an attractive option for developers and contractors.
Over time, this system - with AI enhancement - is capable to learning from previous models and understand the nuisances of the building methodologies in order to determine the best outcomes in terms of cost and quality.
Our ABRAT fully automated construction system are inclusive of various systems and technologies that have been developed to partially or fully automate the construction process. Here are some key technology and process that are crucial to the success of our system:
Robotics: Our inclusion of AROBOTS - our robotic development division - are used to perform tasks such as concrete pouring, drilling, welding, and finishing. They can also be used to assemble prefabricated building components, such as wall panels, floors, ceilings, and roofs. These AROBOTS are typically controlled by an operator, but they can also be programmed to perform tasks autonomously.
3D printing: This is an element which have been in development for years. Our intent to use 3D printing is to create precise and complex shapes that would be difficult to achieve with traditional building techniques. In addition, advanced 3D printing technology will need to further develop in order to "print" components on-the-fly as the building is being assembled. This technology - if done properly with continuous advancement of the printing modules - will be primary to our fully automated construction system ABRAT.
Modular construction: Modular construction involves building individual modules off-site in a factory, which are then transported to the building site and assembled into a complete building. This method can significantly reduce construction time and improve quality control.
Prefabrication: Prefabrication involves manufacturing building components off-site and assembling them on the construction site. This can reduce construction time and improve quality control, as the components can be built in a controlled environment.
Building information modeling (BIM): BIM is a technology that is used to create a digital model of a building, including its structure, systems, and components. BIM can be used to simulate the construction process and identify potential issues before construction begins.
Autonomous construction vehicles: Autonomous construction vehicles are being developed to perform tasks such as excavation, grading, and site preparation. These vehicles can be programmed to perform tasks autonomously, reducing the need for human intervention.
