Robotics in construction
A brief survey of robot technologies in construction, the technology drivers and current applications.
Automation construction
Automation is the use of control systems and machinery to reduce the need for human intervention in processes. It has increasingly important roles in both the global economy and daily life. Engineers strive to combine automated devices with tools to create complex systems for a wide range of applications. Close-range digital photogrammetry is a technique used in civil engineering for tasks like deformation measurement, crack measurement, and strain analysis. It provides accurate, contactless measurement and has advantages of reducing time/effort, allowing repeated measurements, and transmitting data over networks.

Recent treands in robotics & automation in construction
Robotic automation has been increasingly used in construction. First generation robots performed simple dangerous or unpleasant tasks like welding and painting. Second generation robots can perform more complex tasks and simulate human functions by moving, sensing their environment, and responding to changes. Today, automation and robotics are used in masonry prefabrication, steel component production, and the precast concrete industry. The degree of automation in precast concrete is almost 100%. While robotics increases productivity and quality, it also increases costs and requires more maintenance than manual labor. Current research focuses on software and sensor technologies rather than new robot developments.

Modular construction involves prefabricating building sections off-site and transporting them for assembly. It offers several advantages over traditional construction including significantly reduced construction time, lower costs due to controlled factory conditions and simultaneous on-site/off-site work, and less waste. Modular buildings are built using wood or steel frames with walls, floors, and other components assembled indoors in sections and transported for cranes to piece together on foundations. Their strength and durability matches traditional buildings while providing environmental benefits like reduced materials use and easier deconstruction.

Development of Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV)
In the material handling industry safety has been a major consideration from the beginning and has only become more and more measured as liability and worker moral are taken into account. Ergonomics have also rewritten how employees are effected by the work they do. In current practice, the operators that works in a production line (especially in automotive plant) will have to give out their energy to manually push the trolley with an estimated weight that is nearly to 500kg. The trolley with the body frame needed to be deliver from one defined location to the next. It is believe that the current method applied is one of the effective way to bring the trolley to the next station. However, the push and pull forces that is applied to the skid or trolley with a heavy load may cause an ergonomics effects to the operators such as the Low – back Disorder (LBD). Manual material handling work has been reported contributing to a large percentage of MSDs annually. LBD is generally caused by cumulative effects of faulty body mechanics, poor posture, awkward movements and improper lifting techniques. The main objectives of this project is to fabricate an AGV by using appropriate material and process that is able to tow a trolley or skid with a load with an estimated weight of 500kg and accomplish a safe handling operations by replacing the operators with AGV. In this project, the AGV is fabricated accordingly through appropriate process such as welding, assembly and etc. This AGV responses and navigation is controlled by the microcontroller which is a device that act as the main brain. It has the ability to follow the black line as it guide path by using the IR line sensor and avoid the obstacles by using the ultrasonic sensor. The project implicates of fabrication of the hardware. AGV is, therefore, suitable for automating material handling in batch production and mixed model production,

The system uses IR sensors, an Arduino Uno, an LCD display and a buzzer to detect when vehicles exceed the speed limit. It measures the time taken for a vehicle to pass between two IR sensors to calculate its speed. If a vehicle is over the limit, the system alerts the driver with the buzzer and displays the speed on the LCD. It aims to reduce road accidents by informing authorities of speeding vehicles. The document outlines the components, algorithm, advantages and applications of the system.
Wireless Rash Driving Detection System
This document describes a wireless rash driving detection system presented by Kamlesh B. Mishra. The system uses infrared sensors to detect vehicles and measure their speed.

The system could be improved through adding CCTV, voice alerts, and GSM technology to notify authorities.
Automated Material Handling
The document discusses automated guided vehicles (AGVs) which are used for material handling in manufacturing facilities. AGVs can move materials autonomously along predetermined routes with minimal human intervention. They have on-board batteries and controls to navigate pathways using embedded wires, painted lines, or lasers and sensors. AGVs improve productivity and safety by automating material transportation between different locations in a facility without requiring manual labor.

The project involves designing and building a prototype of a black line tracking robot. The robot uses sensors and a microcontroller to follow a black line on a white surface and maneuver turns. It is intended to function autonomously within an automated factory environment. The document provides background on the project, acknowledges those involved in advising and supporting the work, and outlines the various chapters that will comprise the project report, including the robot design, hardware components, implementation details, results, and proposals for future work.

How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.

Automation in Construction
- 1. BY : Sarthak Munshi 1163
- 2. O Labor efficiency is alarmingly low O Skilled workforce is vanishing O Work quality is low O Control of the construction site is difficult O Accident rate at construction sites is high O Waste and trims are high (3 To 7 tons per average home; 40% of all materials used worldwide are for construction) O Low income housing and emergency shelters are critical O Construction is the largest sector of almost all economies O All other products are fabricated automatically – construction is still largely a manual task Labor productivity comparison for non-farm industries and construction industry Construction Productivity index Non-farm productivity index
- 6. O Inspection Tools O Enhanced use of GPS O Material Delivery and Certification O Remote Construction Site Monitoring O Connected Site O Machine Automation O Post Construction Surveys
- 8. A Machine Guidance system will be considered to be one that uses automation to provide the equipment operator a visual indicator of the position of the cutting edge (blade, bucket, screed, etc) relative to the design surface being constructed.
- 9. Some advantages of guidance machines at the construction site: O No stakes required O No grade checker required O Records data for quality control O Records data for volume computation O Data could be transmitted to engineer, inspector, or surveyor for “real time” checks
- 10. Types of Guidance Systems O Stakes O String Lines O Sonic Sensors O Lasers O GPS O Total Stations O GPS w/Lasers
- 11. O GPS provides near exact position of vehicle in “real time” O Cab mounted display indicates position of machine relative to design anywhere on the surface O Equipment operator controls cutting edge Guidance By GPS
- 12. Laser augmented GPS systems delivers a few millimeters of vertical accuracy using conventional lasers capable of working on an inclined plane
- 13. Total Systems O Started in the early 1990’s with robotic motorized total stations that could track a prism mounted on a machine Could position the prism to high accuracy - equivalent to string lines and lasers
- 14. 14 O Information from the prism position could be sent to the machine, which would adjust the hydraulics accordingly.
- 15. A Machine Control system will be one where the cutting edge of the equipment is fully controlled by automation. The system is connected to and controls the hydraulics while the operator simply drives the equipment and manages the automation.
