Abstract:

The International IMS IF7 Project has developed a new type of the construction assembly methods for Large-scale Structure in view of the concept, an Innovative and Intelligent Field Factory for a large-scale building construction such as high-rise residences, ship building, etc. in order to improve productivity on construction site. Much smaller investment and earlier capital collection become possible primarily because of the speed-up of construction and reduction of the injected labor force. One of the goals for developing the aforementioned construction method is to decrease the total construction period and amount of labor force to a half of those of traditional construction Methods".
