Abstract:

The production of prefabricated structures implies following certain regulations and applying certain work management in order for the process to proceed within the framework of the set requirements (deadline, costs, building and process quality). The application of inappropriate technology and management eliminates the advantages offered by prefabricated construction. Since the process is a complex one and is, from the mathematical point of view, poorly structured, the proposed solution for defining actual possible assembly methods, process flow and effect modeling, as well as selecting the optimal solution, is the application of an expert system as a comprehensive model. An expert system set in this way yields decisive information, essential to assembly management as a part of the construction process.The paper gives an outline of the possibilities of the PRIMATES designed and tested expert system for the selection of the optimal method of concrete hall assembly.
