While the term automation may evoke images of robots taking over jobs, the reality is far more intricate. In the realm of construction, for instance, automation is less likely to diminish employment opportunities than it is to enhance productivity. Indeed, automation, coupled with the global demand for new and upgraded infrastructure and more accessible and affordable housing, can profoundly influence the trajectory of the construction industry. The key lies in anticipating and preparing for this shift, in part by cultivating new skills within the current and future workforce. This comprehensive book delves into all aspects of automation in construction, encompassing the utilization of information technologies in design, engineering, construction technologies, and maintenance and management of constructed facilities. Its broad scope encompasses every stage of the construction life cycle, from initial planning and design to the construction of the facility, its operation, and maintenance, to the eventual dismantling and recycling of buildings and engineering structures.
Key Features:
Examines Building Information Management systems, enabling on-site execution of construction more efficiently and facilitating project teams to eliminate errors and enhance workforce coordination.
Provides the most up-to-date information on the automation of modular construction, production in factories, including 3-D printing of components such as facades and even load-bearing and essential components.
