Recently, robotic technologies have significantly improved, bringing considerable enhancements in many sectors; the main objective of this paper is to figure out if these innovations have also involved the building industry. To achieve this purpose, it has been considered crucial to first reshape and clarify some concepts, incorporating a much more flexible understanding of the term "robot", as well as the formulation of its future potential. Subsequently, it has been carried out an analysis of the various advanced devices that are currently available to be employed in the construction processes; the review includes a thorough classification of construction robots, divided into 18 families reflecting their purpose of use, and a dissection based on the term used to define them. The attention has been focused on the most updated and recent robots and, in their absence, on the most advanced machines prevailing. This operation has been achieved taking into account the development history of construction robots, as well as the analyses and classifications previously conducted, reconsidering them according to the just mentioned reflections. Furthermore, an in-depth exploration of the exoskeletons, as well as on a sophisticated robot recently developed by Schindler Group has been executed.

Nowadays, economical and social environments are changing to the type of an advanced country for development of techniques in power industry. So most of workers are recently avoiding the 3D works and asking for safety of working environment, etc. in highly dangerous parts such as hot line working on distribution lines, especially. Therefore, most advanced countries are using the support-arm or robotic systems on distribution line works for securing the construction reliability, economical feasibility and protection of linemen from the electric shock and so forth. In special Japanese electric power companies are using the robotic system named manipulator. In Korea, a support-arm has been developed for safety and facility in live working on distribution lines but not widely supplied. In this paper we will introduce development cases of support arm and manipulator robot for live working on distribution lines.

Construction robot-based automation can contribute to productivity and quality improvement by replacing manpower in tasks that have simple repetitive properties or require high precision. In this respect, layout work is one of the most effective tasks in introducing robot-based automation technology. The development of a robotic layout system for building structures has recently been promoted in Korea, and a prototype of a marking robot has been produced. However, for commercialization, the technology improvement is required through the analysis of major improvement directions. Therefore, this study aims to derive the improvement priorities of the marking robot based on the evaluation of researchers who participated in the development process. As a result, there was a high demand for improvement in factors such as the robot's precise positioning method and robot size and weight. The results of this study are expected to serve as guidelines for the efficient input of limited resources in the future technology development process.

최근 제조업의 자동화 및 로봇기술의 발전은 건설업에서 고도의 자동화 기술이 매우 유용할 수 있음을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 첨단기술의 일부만이 건설업에 적용되고 있는데 이것은 작업의 위치가 수시로 변경되고 재료, 장비 및 작업자가 항상 움직이는 건설현장의 특성 때문이다. 단지개발과 같은 토공작업은 매우 반복적이고 지루한 작업이며 많은 건설장비가 필요한 작업이기 때문에 자동화 기술을 적용하기에 좋은 후보분야이다. 본 논문에서는 자동화 토공을 위하여 옥트리 모델을 이용하여 작업환경을 모델링하고 효과적인 굴삭기 플랫폼 이동계획을 생성하는 방법을 제시하고 있다. 굴삭기 플랫폼의 이동경로를 생성하기 위하여 숙련된 작업자와 공사관리자의 노하루를 제안된 토공작업계획 모델에 반영하였다.

건축구조물이나 합 등의 구조물이 부등침하의 영향으로 기울어지게 되는 것은 그리 드문 현상이 아니다. 그동안 구조물의 기울기를 감소시키기 위한 다양한 공학적인 해결방안이 시도되어 왔는데, 그 가운데는 soil extraction 공법도 포함되어 없다. 본 논문에서는 최신의 로보트 굴착장비를 이용한 2개의 원심모형실험을 실시하여 soil extraction공법을 이용하여 기울어진 건물의 경사를 감소시키는 데 있어서의 주된 요소에 대한 연구를 실시하였다. 원심모형실험에서는 모형토조가 고속으로 회전하는 가운데 로보트를 이용하여 기울어진 건물의 주변에 구명을 천공하였다. 지반에 구멍을 천공함으로 지중응력의 감소를 유도하여 건물의 기울기를 성공적으로 감소시킬 수 있었다. 원심모형실험을 통해서 분석된 천공의 순서, 지반의 밀도 및 배열 등이 건물의 기울기를 감소시키는 정도에 대하여 심도 있는 연구를 실시하였다.

The mechanical design for biped walking of a humanoid robot doing the Argentina Tango is presented in this paper. Biped walking has long been studied in the area of robotic locomotion. The aim of this paper is to implement an Argentina Tango dancer-like walking motion with a humanoid robot by using a trajectory generation scheme. To that end, this paper uses blending polynominals whose parameters are determined based on PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) according to conditions that make the most of the Argentina Tango's characteristics. For the stability of biped walking, the ZMP (Zero Moment Point) control method is used. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is evaluated by simulating biped walking with the 3D Simscape robot model. The simulation results show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper introduces a robot called the MRINSPECT V (Multifunctional Robotic crawler for Inpipe in-SPECTion V) for the inspection of pipelines with a nominal 8-in inside diameter. Based on the mechanism of the previous model MRINSPECT IV, we developed a new MRINSPECT V by using the differential driving mechanism, so that just simply controlling the speed of each driving units helps the robot to travel effectively inside the pipelines. Furthermore, the robot uses clutches in transmitting driving power to wheels. This clutch mechanism enables MRINSPECT V to select the suitable driving method according to the shape of pipeline. In this paper, the critical points in design and construction of the proposed robot are described with the preliminary results to provide good mobility and increase the efficiency.

Fish-mimetic robots or fish-mimetic propulsors have been developed or under construction. A mechanical system cannot have the same functions as bio-organic systems. Thus, the hydrodynamic characteristics of fish locomotion should be well understood in order to develop and control a feasible intelligent fish-mimetic robot with its optimal motion pattern known. In this paper, a mackerel-mimetic robot fish is fabricated in order to understand the hydrodynamic characteristics of fish locomotion. A simplified unsteady flow theory is also applied to the hydrodynamic analysis of the motion of the anterior part of the robotic fish. The normal and axial forces of the fish are measured by changing the amplitude and frequencies of fanning motion. It is found that the present theoretical results agree with the measured data.
