  • In recent years, the number of high-rise buildings has been on the rise. As buildings have become larger in scale, significantly different issues related to their construction and maintenance have emerged. In addition, the automation and mechanization of the cleaning work for the curtain wall, one of the most frequently-performed tasks in building maintenance, is required as a fundamental measure. For this reason, a guide-rail type cleaning robot system is emerging as one of the measures in response to external factors, including gust. The major objective of this study is to propose an economic feasibility forecasting model and to apply the a building facade cleaning robot which is now under development.

  • As robotic technologies have become more actively utilized to automate many construction tasks, they have been able to improve the construction productivity, quality, and worker's safety on site. A new advanced system, Robot-based Construction Automation (RCA) system, is currently being developed. To accomplish RCA system effectively, Design for automation (DFA) should be performed in automation system developing phase. The performance criteria of this system are a major cause of design changes. It is required exhaustive review for development new system. This research analyzed the design changes of Climbing Hydraulic Robot system and Construction Factory (CF), being currently developed in the field of applied RCA systems. And the design change matters according to performance criteria in each system's design-by-step were analyzed. The purpose of this research is developing the performance criteria in the developing phase of RCA system, and then will be served as basis for system design in similar projects.

As buildings have become larger in scale, significantly different issues related to their construction and maintenance have emerged.

For this reason, a guide-rail cleaning robot system is emerging as one of the measures in response to external factors, including gust. Therefore, this is a preliminary study for the automation and mechanization of the curtain wall cleaning of high-rise buildings, and aims to derive the basic units and prepare for the concept of the guide rail. It is expected to serve as precedent research for the development and operation of a curtain-wall cleaning robot, and to prepare the basis for an final design of optimal guide rail.

  • This paper concerns 3-D graphical modeling and simulation techniques for design and control of automated equipment for construction and facility maintenance. A case study on the use of 3-D graphics techniques for developing a power plant maintenance robot is presented. By simulating equipment operation within the 3-D geometry models of the work environment the environment design was improved. The 3-D graphical models of the equipment and the work environment were further utilized for the control of the robot from a remote distance. By presenting the real-time updated equipment configuration and the work environment to the operator, the graphical model-based equipment control system helped the operator overcome the problems associated with spatial perception. The collision between the robot and the plant structures was also avoided based the real-time analysis of the dynamically updated graphical models.

  • In this paper, we develops an unmanned test system for the purpose of realizing an actual forklift-based test-bed for the operation durability of the forklift mast. First, two robot actuators were applied to the lever to replace lever manipulation of the operator. For detecting the height of the fork and the tilt angle of the mast, the laser displacement sensor and the inclinometer were installed to the forklift. Next, the embedded control system was used to control the robot actuator with reference to test mode. Experimental evaluation verified that developed test system was effective and practical for the viewpoint of the repeatability of the test mode.

  • This paper discusses the dynamic modeling and robust control development for a differentially steered mobile robot subject to wheel slip according to high load. Consideration of wheel slip is crucial for high load applications such as construction automation tasks because wheel slip acts as a severe disturbance to the system. It is shown that the uncertainty terms due to the wheel slip satisfy the matching condition for the sliding mode control design. From the full dynamic model of the mobile robot, a reduced ideal model is extracted to facilitate the control design. The sliding mode control method ensures the dynamic tracking performance for such a mobile robot. Numerical simulation shows the promise of the developed algorithm.
