AB  - Examines the potential for introducing automation processes including
robots into the construction industry. Outlines some of the problems to be
tackled including the technical and organisational problems of site layouts
and the role of automation and robotics in construction. Looks at the
advantages of using task‐specific robots and the development of
mechatronics. Emphasizes the need for the development of CAD in architecture
and construction as autonomous robotic machines require appropriate design
description of a building to make available the necessary information about
the developing building geometry on the construction site.
