Abstract

Deployment of Construction Robots Applying the Information Technology and Network System Shigeo Kitahara, Yoshida Takashi Pages 19-23 (2006 Proceedings of the 23rd ISARC, Tokyo, Japan, ISBN 9784990271718, ISSN 2413-5844) Abstract: The future points to the application of IT to the construction robot for the overall processes of civil engineering work from the planning and design stages to the maintenance management. The Civil Engineering Technology Subcommittee in charge of civil engineering work field in the Robotics Committee in Construction of the Japan Society of Civil Engineers has reviewed the current situations and the future perspective as well as issues on the observational construction method and the unmanned construction method using a construction robot, with an attempt to view the extensive perspective design. The subcommittee investigated and studied the prospects and challenges in the IT-using construction robot in the civil engineering work field in terms of information technologies using information networks into the construction robot. This report asserts that to attain advancement of use of the construction robot in the civil engineering field, it is essential to standardize the machinery and communication systems and depict a grand design of new information services under the trend toward standardization of information use systems in order to carry forward an enhancement in their inter-convenience through information integration from the planning and designing to maintenance management phases of the civil work.
