Unmanned patrol robots are currently being developed for autonomous data survey in construction sites. As the amount of data acquired by robots increases, it is important to utilize proper metadata and system to manage data flow. In this study, we developed three materials, metadata design, robot system and web system, in the purpose of automating construction site data survey using unmanned patrol robots. The metadata was mainly designed to represent when and where raw data was acquired. To identify the location of data acquired, localization data from SLAM algorithm was converted to suit the construction drawings. The robot system and web system were developed to generate, store and parse the raw data and metadata automatically. The materials developed in this study was adopted to Boston Dynamics SPOT, a quadruped robot. Autonomous data survey of 360-picture and environment sensor was tested in two construction sites and the robot worked as intended. As a further study, development on the autonomous data survey to improve the convenience and productivity will be continued.

Layout work for building structures requires high precision to construct structural elements in the correct location. However, the accuracy and precision of the layout position are affected by the worker's skill, and productivity can be reduced when there is information loss and error. To solve this problem, it is necessary to automate the overall layout operation and introduce information technology, and layout process automation using construction robots can be an effective means of doing this. This study develops a prototype of an automated layout robot for building structures and evaluates its basic performance. The developed robot is largely composed of driving, marking, sensing, and control units, and is designed to enable various driving methods, and movement and rotation of the marking unit in consideration of the environment on structural work. The driving and marking performance experiments showed satisfactory performance in terms of driving distance error and marking quality, while the need for improvement in terms of some driving methods and marking precision was confirmed. Based on the results of this study, we intend to continuously improve the robot's performance and establish an automation system for overall layout work process.

The study presents work information classification system of apartment house which can organize all construction management services throughout the planning and management of a construction such as the decomposition of the design process, the assembly of construction process and cost estimating, etc. In addition, the study suggested a way to connect work information classification system based on a relational database in working order and built a conceptual model for automated cost estimating by utilizing established data base. A conceptual model for automated cost estimating will resolve the fundamental problems of the existing cost estimating system and will be able to take advantage of scientific cost estimating system at the construction site of apartment house.

국토해양부에서는 건설산업의 투명성을 제고하고 생산성을 향상시키기 위해 1990년대 후반부터 건설사업정보화(CALS : Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) 사업을 진행중에 있다. CALS는 제조업의 모든 상품, 즉 주요장비 또는 다양한 상품 등을 획득하기 위한 설계, 생산과정, 또는 보급, 조달 및 이를 운영하는 운용지원과정을 연결시키고, 이들 과정에서 사용되는 각종 정보를 표준이라는 공통 창구를 통해 디지털화하여 컴퓨터상으로 정보를 통합하여 자동화시키는 개념이다. 이는 컴퓨터 네트워크를 이용해 상호 교환이 이루어지는 자동화되고 통합된 환경으로 변환시키는 정부와 기업간의 경영전략이라고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 개념에서 확장된 건설CALS는 건설공사 전 과정, 즉 기획, 설계, 조달, 시공, 유지보수 등의 과정에서 발생하는 각종 정보를 다양한 이해당사자가 교환하고 공유하기 위한 개념으로 출발하였으며, 현재 이를 지원하기 위한 5개의 단위시스템을 개발하여 운영중에 있다. 이중 용지보상시스템은 건설공사의 업무중에 시공단계에서 이루어지는 보상업무를 지원하는 시스템이다. 보상업무는 건설사업 과정 중에서 민원인과 직접대면하는 일이 많고, 액수도 클 뿐만 아니라 개인의 소유권과 밀접한 관계가 있기 때문에 분쟁의 소지가 매우 많다. 이에 본 논문에서는 보상업무 수행시 다양한 이해당사간의 각종 보상자료 교환체계 확립을 통한 업무 선진화방안 제시를 통해 업무의 투명성을 최대화하고 민원을 최소화하여, 보상업무 담당자에게는 업무의 효율성을 제고하고 민원인들에게는 국가행정에 대한 신뢰도를 높일 수 있는 보상업무 선진화 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

The productivity is the one of the primary elements to evaluate the new systems performance for building construction along with the economic efficiency, the safety, and the quality improvement. At present the on-site construction automation systems(we will call it as Construction Factory or CF hereafter) is under the development by research group for construction automation of high-rise building. The system includes many sub-systems such as a robotic crane, a construction factory, bolting robots, a building material management system using RFID and so on. In this study we discuss and propose the method to evaluate for these hybrid on-site automation system fundamentally. In future we devise a framework of evaluation modules for the on-site building automation system on the basis of this discuss.

It is necessary to construct the process automation system to improve the design efficiency and procure the higher design quality on the field of ship building. To construct this system, the shipbuilding companies should improve the 3D CAD/CAM system customized to the ship design and the software about design information management which could solve the conflict problem between the several related design division at the same time. The typical example is the Hole-plan process in the ship-building design. For the request of additional holes from outfitting division, the hull design division checks the compatibility conditions and reflects these holes to the hull panels if acceptable. if not, the requests are rejected and sent back to the outfitting division. These serial processes are not simple and require the tedious communication, discussion, and the complicated drawings. This article gives a basic introduction to the process of hole-plan system and proposes a strategy to automate its process.
