Present Circumstances of an Automated Construction System for High-Rise Reinforced Concrete Buildings

Abstract

An automated construction system has been developed to reduce the total cost of high-rise reinforced concrete building construction. It has been already applied to three condominium construction projects in Japan and one office building construction project in Singapore since 1995. Application of this system ensures good quality, improves the working and environmental conditions, reduces the construction period, manpower, and wastage, and improves overall productivity. Through these applications, the authors have improved and adapted the system to suit various conditions.
