Abstract:

For rationalizing building construction systems with robots, we organized WASCOR (WASeda Construction Robot) research project at System Science Institute, Waseda University in 1982. The project team is composed of 10 university professors in the field of civil, mechanical, industrial engineering and system science, management and engineers from 9 general contractors and 2 construction machinery manufacturers. In autumn of 1988, we finished the second three year period of the research. As the result of the six years university-industry co-operative research, in this paper (part 1), we would like to report: 1) Methodology of the research. 2) Results of the needs survey and operational priority decision to the robotization. 3) System design condition analysis and measurement. 4) New technologies developed in the project. 5) Problems to be solved and future direction of the research. In the followed papers, part 2 and 3, result of the system design and applied new technologies are reported.
